Subject: For moderation - Digitisation of newspapers and
magazines in Iceland
In the National and University Library of Iceland we have a project on
digitisation of Icelandic newspapers and magazines from the 18th and
19th century. Now we are building a database for the material, to see
how much it is and how it is best to organise it to get the pictures
from the database, and how to search the photographically database for
special issues and so on. There will be a lot of information in this
database, e.g. title of the newspaper or magazine, place of publication,
when the first volume and the last where issued, numbers of issues each
"year", where printed, name of the editor, owner and so on. I want to
ask the list what it is that they think is necessary to put in such a
database or maybe suggest some literature on this subject.
