Description: My PhD supervisor once told me that everyone doing
newspaper analysis starts by writing code to read in files from
the 'LexisNexis' newspaper archive (retrieved e.g., from
or any of the partner sites).
However, while this is a nice exercise I do recommend, not
everyone has the time. This package takes files downloaded from
the newspaper archive of 'LexisNexis', reads them into R and
offers functions for further processing.
