Hello folks, I'm guessing that many of you will, like myself, be in lockdown. I hope you're all doing ok!

We're very lucky to be able to work remotely, so we're doing what we can to make this time a productive one for folks that use PP - we've got a content release coming your way in the next few days.

It will contain:

•   Gisborne Times (1901-1937)
•   Hokitika Guardian  (1917-1940)
•   Opotiki News (1938-1950)
•   Saturday Advertiser (July 1875-1878)
•   Wanganui Chronicle (1860-1869)

It includes a decent nibble into the 20th century coverage of Gisborne, and fills a gap we had in the Wanganui area too. I hope you have fun digging in to this.

All the best from the PP team - stay safe in there  ;)

Hello PapersPast

As our Gisborne roots go all the way back to the Black Friday Massacre, any Gisborne release is welcome.

Thanks.

...aaaand it's live.

Do a Ctrl-F5 refresh on the PP page in your browser (Shift-cmd-R on a Mac) and it should show up for you.

Have fun folks! Let me know if you have any issues, I'm here to help if you need me.
