Hi Cobber and SGTL,
That's such good news about Trove, and such a relief.
I've spent hours and hours on Trove over the last few weeks tracking down the history of Sportsman and Safetee. Without Trove I wouldn't have been able to achieve what I did.
I also use newspapers.com, which is a paid service attached to Ancestry.com. Newspapers.com only covers The Age and the SMH in Australia, but still turns up some items that Trove doesn't, and vice versa, which is a bit odd. I was also able to use Ancestry.com to find some basic biographical info about the Sportsman and Safetee proprietors, which is the first time I've done that, but very useful.
But I digress! It is good news about Trove, and I am thankful that our government has recognised the value of it and been willing to continue supporting it, in amongst all the other calls on our national funds.
