Papers Past is a collection of 19th and early 20th century newspapers
belonging to the National Library of New Zealand.
The previous version of the site made images of each of the 1,000,000+
newspaper pages in the collection available, but did not allow the contents
of the newspapers to be searched. The new site is a complete redesign, and
is based on the Veridian™
software.

“ The National Library of
New Zealand recently undertook a project to enable the
full text searching of its Papers Past product, an online
collection of 1.2 million pages of historic New Zealand
newspapers ( paperspast.natlib.govt.nz).
We worked with Digital Library Consulting to develop the underlying delivery system
and a new interface using the [Veridian] software. The new website has
been a huge success, and we enjoyed working with Stefan
and his team. They were always very responsive and had a lot of
innovative and practical ideas to contribute to the process. We hope
to continue working with them into the future. ” Steve Knight, Associate Director National Digital Library,
