  • Queensland: The Chronicle 1903-83 online

    Courtesy of the Sydney DPS mailing list:

    Nambour Chronicle & North Coast Advertiser

    If only we had these features available for all newspapers ... even
    for most of them ... hey, I'd even accept a couple more <g>

    It shows what can be done, particularly in a country area where the
    local newspaper is the most important method of spreading the word
    around the district. The group of organisations listed on the
    "Contact" page appears to have leapfrogged the NLA's digitisation
    project and left it in their dust.

    I urge all of you to show this site to your local librarian, local
    council, local hist soc or genie soc, and suggest they find out how
    it was funded, and think about doing the same thing for your local
    paper. Think of the resources we would have.....

    I've just had a look at it seems very promising. I have yet to register.

    Am at work so no time in lunchbreak to work out where to put it on Wiki - but happy if someone else takes on that task.

    To forget your ancestors is to be a brook without a source, a tree without a root....

      I've just added this to the Wiki Queensland page - but I think the Publications/Newspapers page is locked?
