California Digital Newspaper Collection

Between 2005 and 2011, the CBSR received three two-year grants, and contributed around 300,000 pages to Chronicling America,[6] the public face of the NDNP.

Published newspaper titles submitted include the San Francisco Call, Los Angeles Daily Herald,[7] Amador Ledger, and the Imperial Valley Press.

[9] In 2010, the CDNC initiated the "Born Digital Project", with the goal to collect and host contemporary PDFs from newspaper publishers.

The TIFF images are then processed or "digitized" to create derivative files, including a JP2, PDF, and METS/ALTO XML for each page.

For an illustration of the difference between page- and article-level, compare the San Francisco Call in the CDNC to the same title in Chronicling America.
