Ryerson Index - 1 Million SMH Entries

News from Bill on the OrangeBathurst and HHHV Rootsweb lists:

"The last update of the Ryerson Index, www.ryersonindex.org occurred on Friday night.Statistics kept by John Graham the Co-ordinator show that the site now contains in excess of one million entries extracted from Sydney Morning Herald newspapers of varying years, in nearly eleven years of indexing."

As a regular user of this amazing resource I congratulate and thank the band of volunteers who index not just the Herald but a range of Australian newspapers for our benefit.

Bill says that additional indexers are always welcome. If you can assist with this work please contact >Phil Holford philip.holford@westnet.com.au
