Motivation edit

The ANNO project is a very useful source for searching historical references in (mainly) Austrian or German language newspapers. The Austrian national library is ongoing digitizing a huge amount of historic newspapers from their stacks and publishing the materials online including a fulltext search. Linking corresponding newspaper items from Wikidata to the Project should be a good step.

Some newspapers are already linked in Wikidata using full work available at URL (P953)

SELECT ?item ?itemLabel ?object WHERE {
  ?item wdt:P953 ?object.
  FILTER(CONTAINS(STR(?object), "http://anno.onb.ac.at/"))
  SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "[AUTO_LANGUAGE],en". }
}

Try it!

The Austrian National library provides also a SPARQL endpoint where the newspapers and their ids could be queried: Query ANNO ID
