John HarmsAs someone who goes fossicking in country newspapers (all newspapers actually) from time to time, I reckon this is great. If governments won't provide the budgets (not great) then all power to those who think this is important enough to fund. Just need enough people, across all of Australia, who feel the same way. The small contributions will add up.10y

Robbie StockfeldGreat opportunity to support a digitisation project to widen the scope of Trove's resources.10y

Meg BateGreat work looking forward to seeing the Hamilton Spectator digitised and available in Trove.10y

Kerry SpencerI was borne in Hamilton in 1949 and although I left there in 1966 I still have attachment to the City. It will be grand to look back on the history as my family has lived in the area for over 150 years.10y
