Hi Reformatters,
it's great to see all of that skill, expertise, experience and care being judiciously applied to the preservation of your Collection in-house.
Great Job!

Just lovely! Well done SA :)

Impressive, and much different from the procedures I have seen too often that are driven by cost/time rather than quality.
Do you use any deep tank processor, or just the Prostar?

Definitely work for the anal retentive.

Fascinating process! Are there any vids of audio archiving or traditional paper preservation /convservation coming soon?

Are there any plans for these to be converted into a digital format?

@clofts Hello clofts
A number of South Australian (and papers from other states) have been digitised and are available at the National Library's Trove website.
There you can search across all the digitised newspapers or limit to a paper, state, date etc.
It is a wonderful resource.
While it would be nice to have all our newspapers available in a digital form, I'm afraid we do not have the resources at the present time.

Hi janithw
The State Library used to use an Allen deep tank processor about 11 years ago but have since changed to using the Prostar processor with very good results. The Prostar processor is also very user friendly.
