Do you have a library card? Why not? With my library card I have free online access to these major newspapers
• Chicago Tribune
• Los Angeles Times
• New York Times
• The Wall Street Journal
• The Washington Post

But that's not all...

I have free online access to NewsBank which archives local newspapers, transcripts of news broadcasts (including cable). I also love having access to the Oxford English Dictionary, also free. It's all free.

Then there is Ethnic NewsWatch - another free database. Too bad it does not continue to the present.

Ethnic NewsWatch: A History, which provides historical coverage of Native American, African American, and Hispanic American periodicals from 1959-1989.

Otro recurso es Informe Academico, una colección de revistas hispánicas con textos completos para los hispanohablantes

And magazines, what about them?

Now, Multnomah County voters support our local library and approve library bonds, so maybe it's better than most. But even small-town libraries probably have access to the major daily papers. All accessible at home with your library card.

I could not possibly do my list of #RepublicanSexualPredators without my library's online news sources.

p.s. It's also invaluable if you're looking for scholarly articles and don't have somebody else's money to spend on $35 per article
