This case study provides complementary explanatory information for understanding the current state and future
prospects of European national news agencies. It focuses on the Baltic news agencies, BNS (Estonian and Lithuanian
branches), LETA (Latvia) and ELTA (Lithuania), as examples of news services in small markets. Our purpose was to
investigate how news agencies in small markets respond to the challenges of the internet, digitalisation and the social
media era, which has altered their formerly indispensable position in the news ecosystem. All the news agencies in the
Baltic countries declare as their primary role the serving of society with reliable and diverse information. In order to
survive competition, news agencies, especially small ones, need to be innovative, creative and able to adapt and improve
their services and products. This Baltic case study draws on available documentation and on ten interviews with editorsin-chief, CEOs and journalists.
