in Australian Historic Newspapers; 14 July 2010: "There is a
standalone version of Australian Newspapers (blue original
interface) & a Trove version
(green header). In 2009 we received positive feedback from users
on having the ability to search across other content at the same
time as newspapers. Therefore a plan to migrate the Australian
Newspapers fully into Trove was developed. Trove searches millions
of resources simultaneously. Users can also have the option to
search across newspapers only. It was originally anticipated that
the migration of Australian Newspapers into Trove would be fully
complete by July 2010 and my previous messages on progress noted
this. The migration is almost complete but final switch over and
automated redirection from the blue version to the Trove version
is not expected to happen until the end of this year now rather
than next week. Up until very recently the 2 versions have had the
same functionality, so it didn’t really matter which version a
user was in. However because of the July migration plan the recent
enhancement work to Australian Newspapers has been undertaken in
the Trove version only. Enhancements are mainly things that
users requested in 2008 & 2009. There are now significant
differences between the Trove version & the original
standalone blue version which I am sure many users will want to be
aware of. Many users may wish to transfer from using the
blue version to the Trove version now. At the end of the
year an automatic redirect will be in place & the blue version
will no longer be accessible"; completion date for South

“The
longtail of news: To unpublish or not to unpublish”(Online Journal
Credibility Projects) 15
January 2010
requests to “unpublish” are varied: some believe report is
inaccurate or unfair. Some experience “source remorse” &
rethink what they want the public to know about them. Others may
be embarrassed by what is written about them; they decide they
don’t want the public to know their marital status, or what they
paid for their home; for journalists & news organizations,
requests to unpublish raise questions about accuracy &
fairness, as well as trust & credibility with readers &
communities served;
