This presentation gives an overview of the Australian Newspapers Digitisation Program which began in February 2007 and is being led by the National Library of Australia. The program is a significant national digitisation program with a budget of $8 million dollars for the first 3 years. The scope is to digitise all Australian newspapers from 1803 - 1954 and deliver them free of charge to the public via the internet in full text searchable format.
