Noble Project
Brooklyn Digital
About the project
This project was produced by Brooklyn Public Library's Brooklyn Collection and funded by the Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services, a federal agency that fosters innovation, leadership and a lifetime of learning.
The Brooklyn Daily Eagle was published from 1841 to 1955, then revived for a short time from 1960 to 1963.
Because of the enormity of the collection, the digitization of the historic Brooklyn Daily Eagle newspaper from reels of microfilm has been broken down into more than one phase. Phase I, which can at present be found on this site, covers the period from October 26, 1841 to December 31, 1902, representing half of the Eagle's years of publication. This period includes all of the years for which there is no index as well as the eleven years during which an index was published. Approximately 147,000 pages of newspaper in various digital formats are contained in this online repository. Access can be gained either by date of issue or by keyword searching.
How the repository was created
Through a special agreement, Brooklyn Public Library borrowed new second generation negative microfilm reels from the Library of Congress.

These reels were sent to OCLC/Preservation Resources and were then imaged using Sunrise scanners creating Group IV Tiff images at 300 dpi. The images were then cleaned up and aligned.
