Trove advanced search newspapers

One resource that I was keen on including was the fantastic Australian Newspapers project at the National Library of Australia. What I had in mind was being able to give a sense of context to any historical event by calling up the headlines for that particular time. So I had to reverse engineer the advanced search page to work out the various query options, and then build a screen scraper to harvest the results. Annoyingly, only 10 results are returned at a time. After than it was pretty straightforward. Soon I had my own Python module to query the newspapers database and process the results. The next step was to use the module to build a simple API that would let us quickly grab a set of headlines for a particular date and place. Django and Piston made this easy. To see headlines from Victoria on 1 January , for example:. That was pretty cool and it started me thinking about what else I might do with the data. At first I was planning some sort of browser, like my Population Browser , but that seemed a bit boring. So I decided to create a simple game that grabbed a random headline and asked you to try and guess the date. Yes, basically it was a rip-off of The Price is Right — but an interesting, ironic and historically engaged rip-off…. This required me to make a change to the API and Python module so that I could retrieve a random headline. Basically it just meant generating a query based on random values for the day, month, year and state.
