The newspaper covers most of Ottawa County, including Holland, Beechwood and Zeeland, as well as northern Allegan County, Michigan, including Douglas and Saugatuck.
Originally an afternoon paper published six days a week, the Sentinel moved to Saturday mornings and then added a Sunday edition in the late 1980s. In the late 1990s, the paper adopted a morning format for all seven days.
Before adopting the name The Holland Sentinel, it was called The Holland Evening Sentinel (1928–1977),[2] and before that the Holland Daily Sentinel.[3]
The paper was formerly owned by Stauffer Communications, which was acquired by Morris Communications in 1994.[4] Morris sold the paper, along with 13 others, to GateHouse Media in 2007.[5] In 2019, GateHouse announced it was acquiring Gannett to become the country's largest newspaper chain in the United States.[6]
In the mid 1980s, the Sentinel was a satellite publishing site for the Chicago Tribune.
In the early 2000s, printing operations were moved to the Allegan, Michigan, facilities of The Flashes, a weekly advertising only newspaper that Morris Communications had purchased a few years prior. The paper is now published in Detroit.
