The face of the newspaper has changed substantially over time, and also varies widely between publications. Find out more from @EmilyJLB at the Atlas of Digitised Newspapers: https://t.co/URBodOUenu

I made an @OceanicEx infographic to show what we were working with, in terms of numbers, when we made the Atlas of Digitised Newspapers and Metadata. Yes, we really did make a spreadsheet of over 3000 metadata fields (and you can download it from DOI:10.6084/m9.figshare.11560110)

[Dr Emily Middleton (formerly Bell) @EJLMiddleton]

And the feuilleton was a new newspaper term for me! So now we’ve got an example, if you’re not sure what it means: https://t.co/o2Llev52aL. I can also recommend this great article about ‘foolitons’: https://t.co/b9gc9Qgzof

How do #digitizednewspapers collections begin? In 1999, the @KB_Nederland initiated the Roaring 20s and War & Revolution projects, in which 3 newspapers from the 1920s and 300k pages from the 1910s were digitised and OCR'd. Learn more at "The Atlas": https://t.co/doZ44dbYpa

[melissa terras @melissaterras]

Really pleased to contribute to this wonderful work by @mhbeals and @EmilyJLB and team @OceanicEx! An open access guide to openly licensed digitised newspapers around the world, so you don't have to figure out all the metadata schemas yourself when wanting to reuse them.

[Library of Congress @librarycongress]

Newly available on the Library of Congress website are the newspapers edited & published by Frederick Douglass, who escaped slavery in 1838 and became a voice for abolitionists as a journalist, orator & author. More: https://t.co/zQSOMi6zT6

Digitization results in digital objects often accessed in isolation, out of context.

Awesome work @OceanicEx makes visible "relationships btw a database’s internal components, btw data & metadata among collections and btw the digital object & its physical predecessors." #access
