New Web Page View for Postmedia online content

Posted by Jennifer Stein on January 26, 2012

Since 2009, for select newspapers, you will have seen a thumbnail image of the full page on which an article you are reading was printed.  The purpose of these “pageview” images is to provide visual context to the article you are reading. It is often helpful to understand where on a page an article was placed; the size of the headline and/or font used; the placement of images within the story; the proximity to other articles on the page; and the presence of any advertisements on that page.

Effective this week, you will find a similar “pageview” image for online content originating from Postmedia-owned major daily news websites (list below).  A similar use-case for Web Page View applies here:  it can be helpful to see a visual representation of how a story appeared in its native context – where on a webpage it was placed; what other content also appeared on the page; what ads were present.  This point-in-time screenshot can also be critical in the ephemeral world of online content, where webpages are fluid.  Online content changes and disappears, and these pageviews capture what the story looked like at the time it was indexed by our database.

The full page images are sized large enough for you to get a sense of the page's layout, but are not intended to be large enough to read the text of the articles.

You may click the Web Page View thumbnail to view a slightly larger version of the image.  There is no additional charge for accessing these images.

Websites for which Web Page Views are currently available:

  • calgaryherald.com
  • canada.com
  • dose.ca
  • edmontonjournal.com
  • leaderpost.com
  • montrealgazette.com
  • nationalpost.com
  • ottawacitizen.com
  • theprovince.com
  • thestarphoenix.com
  • vancouversun.com
  • windsorstar.com

Images from additional websites will be added as we receive permission from publishers to do so.

Full online content for Postmedia newspapers now on FPinfomart

Posted by Jennifer Stein on September 28, 2011

Earlier this year we announced that full content from the nationalpost.com website was now reflected in the nationalpost.com database on FPinfomart.

We’re really excited to announce that effective immediately, all content available on all remaining Postmedia-owned “newspaper.com” sites is now available in their respective databases on FPinfomart.   These sources can be found in the “Online News” section of our source list.

This change will increase the amount of content in these database from a handful of feature stories each day to dozens of articles daily, providing complete coverage from all sections of the sites.  Please note as well that the newspapers’ blogs will no longer be available as separate publications in our Blogs list.  Instead, if content in the newspaper.com’s database originated on a Postmedia newspaper’s blog, the blog name will appear in the either the “publication name” and/or “section” field of the document.

All online content from each newspaper's website is now in one database - both news and blog posts.

This expanded content set will update continuously throughout the day, bringing you the freshest news available.

Check the section field for details about a blog name, or area of the website where this content ran. A permalink allows you go back to the website to view the content item.

TIP:  Looking to search all stories from a particular blog or section of a newspaper’s website?  Fire up the Expert Search interface for QuickSearch or Archives, and use the following search string:

section: “Defence Watch” OR pubname: “Defence Watch”

We must search both the section and publication name fields because the mobile nature of the web content may cause this information to flow to either of these fields.
