More than a year after making the switch to daily print, Japan bombed [[Pearl Harbor]] and the U.S. entered [[World War II]].

At the time, Collegian Inc. owned some of the last remaining paper copies of the ''Free Lance'' but the copies had yet to be scanned to [[microfilm]] to preserve them. Penn State's Libraries Special Collections/University Archives, Preservation and Digitization Department, and News and Microforms Library met with Collegian Inc. in spring of 2003 to discuss digitizing the last remaining copies. At the time only researchers, alumni, and students had access to historical print issues through bound issue books located at the University Archives. The proposed project set out to scan all issues April 1887-August 2, 1940, in total 16,000 page images, in a year or less. In spring of 2004, one year from the universities initial meeting with Collegian Inc., the 1887-1940 segment was completed and made publicly accessible online. After the success of the initial project Collegian, Inc. granted permission to digitize all issues through 1988. The second scanning project was completed over four years, making in total 132,736 total pages publicly available in 2008. Penn State's Library provided all funding for conversion, software/hardware, on-going maintenance and upgrades. The project came in at a cost of $178,541. The University Libraries allowed [[Google]] to crawl its database starting in 2007, making historical content searchable. With this came multiple lawsuits as formerly inaccessible articles on arrest and disciplinary reports became easily accessible to the public.<ref name="auto"/> In July 2010, in what was called a highly unusual move, two [[Centre County, Pennsylvania]] judges, Judge Bradley P.
