Here it is … the much anticipated title list for Phase III
As with the first two phases, the selection was made by the TNDP Advisory Board. Given the forthcoming centennial anniversaries of two historic events – the First World War and the 19th Amendment – the Board decided to focus on the years 1914-1922. As you will see from the map, we have once again striven for broad geographic coverage.
There are a couple of newspapers that fall outside of the chosen timeframe: the Tennessee Staatszeitung, and the Chilhowee Echo. The Staatszeitung was a German language paper published in post-Civil War Nashville, and the Echo was a newspaper published by women in turn-of-the-century Knoxville. On a personal note, I’m looking forward to the challenge of digitizing some non-English content, especially the technical issues which are bound to come up when working with the Fraktur type!
