Improve offering to readers, increase visibility and earn royalty revenue.
Placing your scanned archive with one or more portals will benefit your local community of readers, achieve higher national visibility, increase traffic to your website, and earn incremental royalty revenues. Coupled with the 'Google Hosted Solution', which will present your scanned archive directly within your website, you have a powerful ROI opportunity.

Simple and affordable program works at your pace and budget.
It took you (and a perhaps a predecessor or two) decades, even a century to amass a printed record of your community history, all carefully bound year-by-year. Now you can begin the process of digitizing your archives for future generations to access online. You need not scan all at once. With the ArchiveInABox program, you are in control of how much and how fast your archive materials are converted. The only minimum requirement is that you fill the shipping container with about 4,000 pages (that's two to five years of the average small newspaper).
