It was published for the first time on 25 November 1977 by initiator Lasse Klein and others while the newspapers first editor was Arni Joensen. Lasse Klein was editor from December 1978 to 1982. Oyggjatíðindi first started as a part of Norðlýsið - the local newspaper from Norðoyggjar (the Northern Islands) with base in Klaksvík which later developed and became the local newspaper for the island Eysturoy in collaboration with Norðlýsið. After some time Oyggjatíðindi was sold throughout all the islands.
