New: New York Times online!

The Library has subscribed to the New York Times online! This joins our other newspaper resources in providing current and historical news content, going back to 1851.

To access the NYT online, visit this site: https://nytimesineducation.com/access-nyt/ You will need to register for an account using your Langara email address. Search for Langara in their Find School search box.

On the next page, there are two options depending on if you’re on or off campus. On campus, click the “here” link. Off campus, click “Go” to log in to the Library’s authentication system.

On the next page you’ll be able to create a personal account with your Langara email address. Once you’ve created your account, you can login at NYTimes.com or on the NYT mobile app.

Faculty and staff have access for 1456 days from registration. After that point, you will need to renew your account using the steps above. Students will have access until December 31 of their graduation year.

The NYT archive is called TimesMachine. It is a searchable interface of digitized pages of New York Times issues published between 1851 and 2002. Articles published between 1851 and 1980 are available to download as PDF files. You can access it at the link above or from the NYT homepage by navigating to the left menu in the top left corner of the screen, selecting More, and clicking on TimesMachine. Make sure you’re logged in to the NYT site before you access TimesMachine.

We also have access to New York Times in Education as part of our subscription. This is a new resource to help educators make the most of the NYT’s digital 24/7 content. New content and teaching resources are added to this site on a weekly basis by Faculty Contributors from a variety of institutions. You’ll need to create an account with your Langara email address. This is separate from your NYT account.

If you have any questions about accessing the NYT, or any other resources, please contact the library and we can help you out. Happy reading!
