Veridian Newsletter - October 2017

A BIG CONGRATULATIONS to our partner at the Colorado State Library. After years of careful planning and hard works, the Colorado Historic Newspapers Collection is now preserving and serving more than one million newspaper pages. This is a signification milestone and exciting moment for both Colorado State Library and Veridian. The larger it grows, the more historical records are preserved and accessed by the public. We are very much looking forward to working with the CHNC team in the coming years to help bring the collection to its next milestone!

This month we are very excited to announce the completion of the 2017 Veridian user interface upgrade!
After several months development and testing it is now ready to roll out. The primary improvement of this upgrade is to enhance the user experience on small screen devices such as smartphones and tablets. However, while making these improvements we also want to make sure the good old Veridian user experience remains unchanged. Read more about this new interface design from our news article.

In the past few weeks we have upgraded a couple of the existing Veridian collections with the new user interface - Upper Hutt Digital Archive and Boston College Newspaper Collection. Feel free to browse within the sites and let us know if you have any suggestions. We will continue to roll out the new interface to all our existing Veridian collections in the next few months.
