Funded Activity Summary
Argus On-Line: A Nineteenth Century Australian Newspaper Digital Index. This project seeks to develop a searchable digital index to the original texts of the Argus print run for the ten years 1870-1879, and make it accessible through the world wide web in 2002. The digital index will, for the first time, make the contents of a late nineteenth century Australian newspaper widely available to researchers of Australia, thus creating a resource of national significance. The digital index will support major national research projects. It will serve as a foundation for the development of a complete digital index to the newspaper over the years 2003-2005.Funded Activity Details
