Google announced yesterday their newspaper archive program
As noted by The New York Times Google is working with more than 100 newspapers including partners such as Heritage Microfilm and ProQuest, which aggregate historical newspaper archives in microfilm. Google has already scanned millions of articles.
IDG's flagship title, Computerworld is part of the program and all issues, stretching back over 40 years are available. Check out the first issue that was published on 21st June 1967.
Google's willingness to bear the digitalization cost and to share revenues made it an easy decision to allow Google to archive the content. Now, Computerworld in partnership with Google has been able to provide a great resource for those interested in researching the computer industry.
