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 Midland Examiner and Wolverhampton Times. The full digitised newspapers comprises 28 Nov.1874 - 20 Nov.1875 (The Wolverhampton times and Bilston, Willenhall, Wednesfield, and Sedgley journal), 27 Nov.1875 - 6 Oct.1877 (The Wolverhampton times and Midland Counties advertiser) 13 Oct.1877 � 28 Sep.1878 (Midland examiner and Wolverhampton Times), 5 Oct.1878 � 27 Sep.1879 (The Midland examiner and times) The digitised page images for years 1874 1878 are available on the British Newspaper Archive website, https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/titles/midland-examiner-and-wolverhampton-times The British Newspaper Archive pages images are behind a paywall, but from March 2021 the paywall will be lifted and these titles will eventually be free to view.
