Newspapers (General)

I have been looking online at the newspapers held at the British Library, and there are many listed for the Forest of Dean. I would love to be able to spend a day there looking at the old papers just to see if I can spot some stories on my ancestors, but I live too far away (Australia!).
It would appear that the library offers a copying service, but you have to have details of the article for them to copy.

Does anyone know if these papers have ever been digitised? Does this site have any plans to try and digitise old Forest of Dean newspapers?
