This paper will use Lord Byron's poem Childe Harold's Pilgrimage. This more unified approach broadens the interdisciplinary appeal and usefulness of publishing archive resources making them relevant and useable to a modern research community and audience. However, current developments in digital presentation and platforms offers the opportunity to unite current print and digital resources in a more unified way, whilst also providing a basis to significantly expand with new research and materials. Whilst a significant amount of research in these areas has been undertaken with publishing archives, it has had restricted impact and exposure due to the limited access and availability of the print and digital formats in which it has appeared. This level and range of detail which archival sources can supply often means a greater accuracy, nuance, and clarity can be provided to the publishing story, to the benefit of not only book and publishing history, but wider bibliographic, biographic, and historic studies. There is a growing awareness of the potential capacity of publishing archives to provide an accurate and forensic level of detail to all aspects of the writing, production, sales and reception of books and texts.
