Between 1953 and 1967 it expanded from two to five editions a week. It mainly covered Ullensaker, Nannestad and Gjerdrum,[1] although offices at Kjeller were opened in 1974. In 1990 it merged with the larger newspaper Akershus Arbeiderblad,[2] which mainly covered Skedsmo, Rælingen, Fet, Sørum and Lørenskog. The two newspapers had shared the same editor-in-chief for some time. Romerikes Blad had been the smaller newspaper before the merger, with a circulation of 10,694 copies in 1983 compared to Akershus Arbeiderblad which had 24,529 copies.[1] Nonetheless, after an initial period under the name Akershus/Romerikes Blad, the name Romerikes Blad was used.[2] The editor-in-chief at the time of the merger was Terje Granerud (1989-2001).
Today, Romerikes Blad is owned 100% by Amedia, like many former Labour-affiliated newspapers. It has a circulation of 37,653 copies of which 36,166 are subscribers.[3]
