I want to first acknowledge “The Waltham Times” for filling the void of local news coverage. I’m a daily reader, it is a tremendous value add to us citizens.

I know the majority of the audience of this Reddit doesn’t necessarily match my demographic (I’m a life long Walthamite [and I’m not saying anything is wrong with you Breezers 😂]), but I was curious of community thoughts on what it would take to have the Waltham Library, or others, completely digitalize the archives of the “Trib”.

The library has years of microfilm of back issues. There is a ton of history in those pages which would be of great interest to like minded folks. Digitizing this would promote accessibility to the history of our city.
