Looking for articles on how access to OCR:ed/full-text digitized newspapers is changing historic research practice. I've found a few Swedish articles (by Pelle Snickars, Johan Jarlbrink, David Larsson Heidenblad) but would like to broaden my reach.

Is Lara Putnam, ”The Transnational and the Text-Searchable: Digitized Sources and the Shadows They Cast” American Historical Review 121, no. 2 (2016) the go-to reference? (not looking specifically for the transnational angle)

@aronambrosiani @histodons There was also a special forum on Trove (including Australian digitised newspapers) in a recent(ish) edition of Australian Historical Studies: https://www.tandfonline.com/toc/raha20/18/4 ($)

@wragge @aronambrosiani @histodons I don't have them at hand, but Ian Milligan wrote a few pieces about this pertaining to dissertations and access to digitized Canadian newspapers, if I recall correctly.

@aronambrosiani @histodons The stuff I've written tend to focus on broader issues of access and use relating to digitised collections (not just newspapers), but there might be something of interest here: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4925423 https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5595420 https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5035855
