You can also search by date, publication and subject.

Look for more features coming online in 2008, including a complete face-lift, more multimedia, and comments on individual articles.

We will also be looking for help from individuals with time on their hands to type in articles from their publication of choice.

This past weekend all the articles were finally re-imported into the website’s database. Now all we have to do is upgrade the display programming and voila! 28,000 articles suddenly re-appear online.

It’s been a year -- a whole year -- since the archive was online, and for that I am truly sorry. But we’ll be back soon. Target date is November 1st.
