Direct electronic library access to major newspapers and magazines?

This information is available courtesy of Jennifer Freer, Business Librarian. Be aware that there might be differences between the publication you see on a website (like a blog or publication website) and the database. Some articles you see online will not appear in our database. 

Does the library offer direct electronic access to major newspapers and magazines? 
We do not. Instead, we offer secondary access through ProQuest, EBSCO, and Nexis Uni. The available articles represent the majority, but not all, of the articles published in the print versions of the publications. Most include text only with occasional images. For full and unrestricted access or subscriber-only content, look at subscribing directly. Most of these publications offer student or educational discounts. That said, library access does provide a majority of the content.

Many public libraries offer temporary direct access to nyt.com and/or www.washingtonpost.com. You can get a Henrietta Public Library card if you live in Henrietta, NY (where the RIT Campus is). As of January 2024, HPL offers residents remote access to nyt.com and www.washingtonpost.com. If you live in another area, check your public library to see what they offer.
