Hamburg was one of the most important centres of the newspaper business in the German speaking countries and, furthermore, a vibrant central point of the German labour movement. Therefore it seems urgent to create digital access to the press of Hamburg’s leftist parties from their very beginnings. This provides insight and enables comparative research into their internal differentiation from right-wing social democrats to the communist party of the Weimar Republic focused on regional newspapers. The Hamburger Echo and its three social democratic predecessors the Hamburger Volkszeitung – in the beginning: Rote Fahne –, the Norddeutsche Zeitung and the Volksblatt für Harburg, Wilhelmsburg und Umgegend comprehensively represent the range of leftist parties.From 1928 onwards they faced the national socialist press at the other end of the political spectrum. The Hamburger Tageblatt and its two antecessors as papers of the NSDAP are part of this project in order to present the full range of political agitation and propaganda in the Hamburg area during the first half of the 20th century. Several liberal and national conservative newspapers published in Hamburg have already been digitised. So they altogether represent all facets of its political landscape of that period. About 315.000 newspaper pages are to be digitised and transformed to machine readable text via OCR in this project. They will be accessible via union catalogues such as the North German GVK and the Zeitschriftendatenbank (ZDB), the union catalogue of serials, and they are to be provided – via an OAI-PMH interface – in ZVDD, in the German Digital Library (DDB) and Europeana as well as in the local newspaper portal.

汉堡是德语国家最重要的报业中心之一，也是德国工人运动的一个活跃中心。因此，从汉堡左翼政党从一开始就建立媒体的数字通道似乎是当务之急。这为他们提供了洞察力，并使他们能够比较研究从右翼社会民主党到魏玛共和国共产党的内部差异，重点放在地区性报纸上。汉堡回声报和它的三个社会民主党前身汉堡人民党--最初是：机械党、北德意志报和哈堡、威廉斯堡和乌姆根德党--全面代表了左翼政党的范围。从1928年开始，他们面对的是处于政治光谱另一端的国家社会主义媒体。作为NSDAP的报纸，The Hamburger Tageblatt和它的两个前身是这个项目的一部分，目的是展示20世纪上半叶汉堡地区的各种政治动乱和宣传。在汉堡出版的几份自由派和国家保守派报纸已经实现了数字化。因此，他们共同代表了那个时期中国政治格局的方方面面。在这个项目中，大约315.000页报纸将被数字化，并通过光学识别器转换为机器可读的文本。它们将通过诸如北德GVK和Zeitschiff tendatenbank(ZDB)等联盟目录和系列丛书联合目录提供，并将通过OAI-PMH接口在ZVDD、德国数字图书馆(DDB)和欧洲图书馆以及当地报纸门户网站中提供。
