British Newspaper Archive to unveil new look platform this summer

The British Newspaper Archive (www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk) has some news:

Something very exciting is coming... the next chapter of the British Newspaper Archive. Later this summer, a new BNA platform will arrive, featuring a range of improvements. The move will be a seamless one, and all your trusted tools will remain. Discover more here: https://bit.ly/4esZXrQ

The full article essentially outlines that the BNA is moving to a new platform in the summer, and promises that it will all be the land of milk and honey when it does so. 

I sincerely hope so, and that this isn't going to be a roll out of the FindmyPast version of the platform, which, despite recent improvements, is still inferior to the BNA's own platform. 

We'll know soon enough.
