Chicago Tribune turning old photos into new revenue stream

|

The Chicago Tribune is kicking off an effort to turn its dusty archived photographs into a shiny new revenue opportunity.
"The overall goal is to figure out how the company can monetize its resources that are currently archival in nature - photos, old newspapers," said Randall Weissman, the Tribune's news administration editor. "We need to get them digitized and figure out how to market them."
To that end, the publisher is undertaking the task of digitizing and licensing its assets for search and sale.
