ProQuest and Google partner on newspaper archive
ProQuest has formed a partnership with Google that has the potential to bring millions of pages of newspaper content to the open web. Google launched the initiative September 8 in conjunction with ProQuest and Heritage. ProQuest will also supply from its microfilm vault newspaper content that can be delivered effectively in the less formal framework of the open web. The company currently holds more than 10,000 newspaper titles, most of which are pristine master film copies. Users can explore this historical treasure trove by searching the Google News Archive or by using the timeline feature after searching Google News. Over time, Google will begin blending these archives into its main search results....ProQuest, Sept. 8; Official Google Blog, Sept. 8
