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 Northern Weekly Gazette. The full digitised newspapers comprises no.50, 55, 60, 73-4, 77-8, 91-4, 97, 99-101, 103-105, 107-173, [?] (8 Dec.1860; 12 Jan., 16 Feb., 17, 24 May, 17, 21 June, 20 Sept.-11 Oct., 1, 15-29 Nov., 13-27 Dec.1861; 10 Jan.1862-17 April 1863; 27 Jan.1865) (Stockton Gazette and Middlesbrough Times), no.390-446 (10 Jan.-4 Dec.1868) (Middlesbro' & Stockton Gazette and General Advertiser.), no.447, 478-483 (11 Dec.1868; 16 July-20 Aug.1869) (The Middlesbrough Gazette and General Advertiser.), no.484-842 (27 Aug.1869-17 July 1876) (Middlesbrough and Stockton Gazette and General Advertiser.), no.844-1197 (12 Aug.1876-12 May 1883) (The Weekly Gazette for Middlesbrough, Stockton, Hartlepool and Cleveland District.), no.1198, etc (19 May 1883-19 Oct.1895) (The North-Eastern Weekly Gazette.), 26 Oct.1895-25 Feb.1939. (Northern Weekly Gazette.) The newspaper continued after 1901, but this has not been included in the dataset due to copyright considerations. The period from 1932 to 1939 has yet to be digitised. The digitised page images are available on the British Newspaper Archive website, https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/titles/northern-weekly-gazette The British Newspaper Archive pages images are behind a paywall, but from March 2021 the paywall will be lifted and eventually some of these images will be free to view.
