Regrettably the NLA (National Library of Australia) declined to subscribe to the Times of India digitisation, because of concerns about the quality of the images. It is available to residents of New South Wales, as the State Library of NSW has subscribed. It has been requested of SL VIC, but they have also declined. Alumni and students of certain universities may find it available through their college. From my experience so far in using this dataset, regrettably I need to confirm the NLA's opinion, as I have found the quality of the images to be very inconsistent, the OCR also leaves something to be desired as many 'hits' are not found by searching. Nevertheless, as I couldn't access any films of T of I after 1890, the digitisation fills a useful whole in resources.
