Digitized Newspaper Interface Updated
If you are a fan of Madison County’s digitized newspapers, hosted by the Winterset Public Library, or if you reach it through its address of www.winterset.advantage-preservation.com or winterset.historyarchives.online/, or… at Madison County’s IAGenWeb homepage under NEWSPAPERS, this message is for you.
The look and feel of the website has been updated to make it more accessible to all users, such as visually impaired, etc. That’s a good thing!
The date fields require more clicks through calendars, which can hold back researchers that know just the dates they want. You can no longer type in the dates you desire. Checkmarks on individual newspapers you have already visited are missing, too. We have submitted suggests asking that both return.
On a brighter note, once looking at a page of newsprint, you can move to the next reference without having to go back to the list of 10 per page. That’s nice!!
Note: earlham.advantage-preservation.com was not affected.
