Additional information
This dataset contains full text and metadata after processing by the Alto2Text pipeline created by the Living with Machines Project. The pipeline took as its input the highly verbose AltoXML files of the same newspaper titles and converted them into the more readable plain text format for the benefit of readers and researchers. It contains plaintext for one year of the The Liverpool Standard etc. The full digitised newspaper comprises three separate titles: Liverpool Standard and General Commercial Advertiser (23rd November 1832- 27th June 1854); Liverpool Standard and General Advertiser (4th July 1854-12th June 1855); Liverpool Standard and General Commercial Advertiser (19th June 1855-4th March 1856). The digitised page images are available on the British Newspaper Archive website, https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/titles/liverpool-standard-and-general-commercial-advertiser The British Newspaper Archive pages images are behind a paywall, but in 2021 the paywall is expected to be lifted for this title and eventually all the newspapers we are digitising under the Heritage Made Digital programme.
