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 Cotton Factory Times. The full digitised newspaper comprises no.1-259, 312-885 (16 Jan.1885 - 27 Dec.1889, 2 Jan 1891 - 31 Dec.1920). The newspaper continued beyond 1901 but this has not been included in this dataset due to copyright considerations. The period after 1921 � 1967after which the title was discontinued, has yet to be digitised. The digitised page images for 1885 � 1920 are available on the British Newspaper Archive website, https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/titles/cotton-factory-times The British Newspaper Archive pages images are behind a paywall,
