Czernowitzers...
Good news at the end of the year! Many of you know ANNO, the AustriaN Newsp=
apers Online Archive, all of you - that's obvious - know Google. Per Novemb=
er 25, 2015 ANNO has digitized 15.5 Million newspaper pages, absolutely mag=
nificent, but above all ANNO has recently implemented the FULL-TEXT-SEARCH:
http://anno.onb.ac.at/anno-suche#searchMode=simple&resultMode=list&from=
=1
AT A FIRST GLANCE THAT SOUNDS TRIVIAL, BUT IN FACT THAT'S NOTHING BUT REVOL=
UTIONARY. THE FULL-TEXT-SEARCH IS TO ANNO AS GOOGLE IS TO THE ENTIRE INTERN=
ET!
Believe me, I know what I'm talking about, it offers amazing and new resear=
ch opportunities. By the FULL-TEXT-SEARCH in ANNO I learned f. i.:
1. that my grandfather Elias Hauster was member of the Czernowitz Cholera D=
efense Commission in 1910,
2. that my first cousin once removed Fritz Bardach, a notorious pickpocket =
in Czernowitz in the 1930s, is related to the aristocratic family Bardach v=
on Chlumberg from Lemberg,
and much, much more. I must admit, that it definitely helps to have abiliti=
es in German and Gothic German type, but nevertheless tha basis is constitu=
ted by the ANNO FULL-TEXT-SEARCH. Check it out, don't forget to use quotati=
on marks for connecting/narrowing your search keywords, try the advance sea=
rch modus too, use the different filters and enjoy the results of your rese=
arch!
