Bonus Announcement!

While I was working on the post about microfilming the Astorian (see below), we received word from our colleagues in Washington, DC that the latest round of content updates has been released on Chronicling America. In addition to further pages completing our run of the Klamath Falls Evening Herald, you can also now view some content from the Sumpter Miner.

Masthead of the Sumpter Miner newspaper, Sumpter, Oregon

For all participating states, the content totals on Chronicling America now look like this:

2,692,369 pages

348 titles

264 historic essays

That’s a lot of reading material! (With plenty more still to come.)
