Not 5 million page views but 5 million pages of information. I also have been helping to contribute by scanning items in my own library to post and host which they don't have in their own collections. It continues to grow daily, a huge benefit for our hobby and all free of course thanks to the generous donations from his coin sales of Eric P. Newman. One of the greats in numismatics.

One thing in the article caught my attention - 6.6% of their entire collection is Coin World. However, none of it is accessible due to copyright. I ran into a wall a few years ago while researching something. Even subscribers cannot access their archives. I joined ANA in order to get a copy of a Coin World article from the ANA library instead.

westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 04/01/2023 01:29 am Yes the restricted list is a tough thing to stomach when you want or need something in the archives yet it's not available at all. Several items I've scanned are also on the restricted list - for now. I finished all the Charles Davis auction catalogs for them. and a few books on Colonial coins. I'm scanning a lot of my own library for myself as much as I give it to the NNP as well, if they don't have it already. Len Augsburger (Director) might be able to get a small bit released to you if it's a genuine research need, but they don't just open them up to anyone. Eventually though I think most of the archive will be released to everyone. I too am eagerly awaiting the Coin World and Numismatic News archives myself. I have a complete set of Numismatic Scrapbook, but would love to have a scanned searchable version as opposed to having to search by memory and hand through decades worth of volumes when I need an article or old ad.
