The British Newspapers Archive went live this morning. They have digitised newspapers from across the country, including all the major local ones. Their website is <http://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk> http://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk I have tried it this morning and needless to say have found some interesting articles (well the headlines at least) but it does suffer the symptoms of digitising poor quality paper and print, in that there is a lot of gobbledygook appearing in the translation from the actual printed word It is free to register and access the database, but there is a subscription cost for getting a copy of the actual report. However, there are many libraries with newspapers on film, such as The Local Studies section at Nottingham Central Library, and I for one will be using it to identify articles and more importantly the issue date. I will then go to the Central Library to look it up and take a copy, avoiding having to trawl through days, months, and indeed years of pages. Brian Binns _____ No virus found in this message.
