Well this time the boot's on the other foot!
NLA is looking for missing newspapers to add to their collection. Maybe you might have one of them in your collection.
Visit https://www.nla.gov.au/australian-newspaper-plan and see what's missing.

Hello Sandra
Thank you for keeping us up to date with the additions to Trove. It is one less thing my addled brain has to try and remember.

Thank you, Sandra. Looking up the Narracoorte Herald right now. I have an interest in Australian McIntosh families and Naracoorte/Kincraig was founded by William McIntosh.

I've been using this feature for a few years. I get articles (surname specific) emailed to me from Trove (newspapers) as soon as they have been scanned and put online.

If you are interested, heres how. Click on the link and you'll see Gambrill articles. Now change that to whatever surname you are interested in.
https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/result?q=gambrill

Then go to the bottom of the page and you'll see 'Subscribe to this web feed'
Keep that subscribe link handy.

Now open https://blogtrottr.com/ and you'll see where to enter a website address (which is the 'Subscribe to this web feed' link as above)/email/and delivery times. So i'll be adding https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/result?q=gambrill&rss and my email and delivery times and viola!

As this only gives you articles that have been added from here on in, you'll need to search manually for those added in the past. I find i get emails in batches, my crew lived in the same areas mostly so I tend to get emails in batches. But it really saves time and a lot of effort that you can put into something else.

Please note this may need a little updating but hope it provides some guidance.

Many thanks Sandra. Two of the families I am researching lived in Melbourne so "The Age" is a welcome addition.
