  1. A wonderful service for historians. Any chance of the Chinchilla News and Murilla Advertiser (Qld) being digitized at some point?

    1. Have to love TROVE... Sorry, I only pass the list on. I have no other information as to what is coming, but you could ask them. I have just checked the entire list of available editions and there is no mention of it yet. The local papers are worth their weight in gold. How fortunate are we that we have this amazing resource and for free..

      If you go to this link, you can fill out an enquiry form , and they will get back to you as soon as they can. Bear in mind, it can take a while as they are never idle, but they will do so.
