Aims and objectives
This project aims to digitize a collection of Uruguayan newspapers published in Montevideo during the 19th century and the first part of the 20th.
• The River Plate Times (1889- 1890)
• The Montevideo Times (1891-1933)
• El Comercio del Plata (1845-1850)
• Le Patriote Français: journal commercial, littéraire et politique (1843-1850)
