Trove - Newspaper Copies
« on: Wednesday 23 September 15 04:40 BST (UK) »

Hello everyone   :)

I thought someone might be interested to know about the service at http://trove.nla.gov.au/

I use Trove a lot and until last week I wasn't aware that they provided a copy service. 

I wanted to get a copy of a 1955 Victorian newspaper and went to an online
company and they are charging $141 delivered   :o . Admittedly it is the whole original paper.

I was able to order photo copies (A3 size, really good quality) of the whole newspaper
from Trove for $16.25 delivered! (It's the same price for 1 - 50 pages)
Ordered last Thursday at 3pm, delivered to
my door last night (Tuesday) at 5pm.  How good a service is that!

Just bought an A3 display book for $10 and, bingo..........a really nicely
presented memory for someones 60th birthday.

Probably some of you were aware of this service but thought it might
be of interest to those looking for this kind of thing

Have a good day

What a great service Raylen!   Thank you for posting!  I'm sure others will be very interested in that as well.
