Where can I find newspapers and magazine articles to read online?
I have an NYPL library card and would like to read articles from newspapers, magazines, and scholarly journals. Where can I find that?
Answer
The New York Public Library (NYPL) subscribes to a large number of databases that can be accessed at our various library locations (https://www.nypl.org/locations). Using these you may search for newspaper, magazine, journal articles:
