Aussie paper archive goes digital

The Sydney (Australia) Morning Herald rolled out a digital archive service that contains all of the paper’s content from Jan. 1, 1955 to Dec. 31, 2001.

Olive Software Inc. and Melbourne-based Smedia Pty. Ltd. headed the project to digitize the paper’s 820,000 pages of microfilm onto Olive’s Active Paper Archive 3.0. Users can access the archive through a subscription to Smedia’s subscription management software.

A free demo of the new archive is available at http://archive.quarterlies.com.au/.
