Complete list of issues for every newspaper in Trove

Harvested 26 June 2024

CSV formatted dataset containing a complete list of newspaper issues available on Trove.

The dataset contains the following columns:

Column	Contents
title	newspaper title
title_id	newspaper id
state	place of publication
issue_id	issue identifier
issue_date	date of publication (YYYY-MM-DD)

Download from Zenodo

To keep the file size down, I haven't included an issue_url in this dataset, but these are easily generated from the issue_id. Just add the issue_id to the end of http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-issue. For example: http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-issue495426. Note that when you follow an issue url, you actually get redirected to the url of the first page in the issue.
