100 hundred years - wouldn't that be 10,000 years altogether, Jay?
Anyway, it's great news, thanks! It does seem to have similar problems to a lot of newspaper archive sites that use OCR software, which is that a lot of the text that comes back in the results list looks like gobbledegook, and I'm glad to see that it has a facility to correct the text. |

Oops, where did that S come from!
I agree re the OCR, I can't find things I already have from the library. Need to read up on the corrections as i've tried to do that but it didn't work.
