Yep that takes me to Papers Past - I was trying to find out what dates of the ODT would be coming online soon.  Nat Library seems to have issues.... unless it's me...  :-\

Yep  .... not working from the "Visit National Library website" link given at PapersPast (website), either.

[The link I gave earlier was working just fine when I posted it - I know, because I tested it.    Obviously a "problem" at the Nat Lib end. ??]   :D

yes it worked for me when you posted it - I didn't make a note of when ODT was going on or what dates were covered, which is why I headed back there.  I didn't break it - honest ;)

Aah  ... just checked NatLib website where there's a notice about a planned outage for maintenance,  happening today - 28th April.    ;D

Should think it will be all back to normal, fairly soon.   ;)

Now that's peculiar.   ::)    By accessing PapersPast via the link on the NatLib website, I was able to find the info re: the forthcoming "new additions".    :D
