Description

In recent years, cultural institutions and commercial providers have created extensive digitised newspaper collections. The unique form and materiality of newspapers, and their grounding in a particular time and place, provide challenges for researchers and digital resource creators alike. This book will be of interest to those who want to investigate how user studies can inform our understanding of technological phenomena, including digital resource creators, students and researchers in universities, libraries and archives. It also asks the timely question: what can the large-scale digitisation of newspapers tell us about the wider cultural phenomenon of mass digitisation?
