Selection of newspapers to be digitised
Aims and objectives
This project aims at preserving 24 848 Newspaper pages dating back to 1895 and showcasing the identity crisis of what’s called nowadays “Lebanon”: divide amongst Lebanese in agreement with or against the several nationalist’s movements, their views and activism towards independence in relation to their religious affiliations (Judaism, Christianity & Islam). This collection was spotted in poor and harsh handling, consequently, needs urgent curation to secure the voice of the past as a path towards leading the tomorrow. Lebanon is still facing the same conflicts as in 1895. Isn’t it time to learn? Isn't time to share hidden information?
