Australian Newspapers Digitization Project (ANDP)

May 24, 2009 · Leave a Comment

The National Library of Australia, in collaboration the Australian State and Territory libraries, has commenced a program to digitise out of copyright newspapers.

This free online service will enable full-text searching of newspaper articles.

This will include newspapers published in each state and territory from the 1800s to the mid-1950s, when copyright applies.

The first Australian newspaper, published in Sydney in 1803, is included in the Program.

3.5 million articles are now available and full-text searchable in the beta service.
