Digitization plan

2008-2009 grant
  • Plan to digitize WSL's 1909-1918 reels (24 reels) and UW's 1903-1904; 1907 reel (1 reel)
  • Also checking on paper copies
  • Substitute for now. Checking to see where negatives are.

Notes

One issue on a misc reel (09-22-1894 on reel 2826) and 1909-1934 (reels 1050-1103) negatives exist in State Archives vault.lrobinson, 2009/02/09 17:39

Checked for negatives and couldn't find any significant collection. UW has 1 reel in 1900-1923 time period. UMI/Proquest has 1940-42. WSHS does not have any of this title. Will check state archives books. lrobinson, 2009/02/06 15:18

Trying to locate a more consistent run of this title - Glenda mentioned that perhaps WSHS has some microfilm negatives. Glenda mentioned this title was the one that seems the most requested by Tacoma researchers/librarians lrobinson, 2009/01/28 18:13

"Sensational headlines but substantive mix of local and national news. Good use of graphics. Covers international news well, including the Russo-Japanese War. Editorials tend to be against the trusts, pro-peace. Excellent advertising displays that increase into the 20th century. Microfilm: A4690 22X. Good quality film but too many gaps. WSA holdings better. Mitchell (1964) reports holdings at Tacoma Public Library. Nothing at UMI for time period needed."2 lrobinson, 2009/01/28 18:13
