The newspaper publishes 365 days a year with a staff that works around the clock. It started life as two newspapers, the Solano County Herald and the Solano Press.

The newspaper covers feature articles in a variety of topics that include local news, business, sports, editorial letters, features, obituaries, classifieds, archives, real estate and automotives.
