How can I access the New York Times?
Answer
There are several ways for Alabama Law faculty, staff, and students to access the New York Times, including full-text access to NYTimes.com.
NYTimes.com
Law Faculty, Staff, and Students now have access to New York Times online. You must use the link located on the library's database listing in order to register. Once you have registered you may access the New York Times online from anywhere from nyt.com and logging in.
If you are off-campus you will be prompted to log in to the proxy server. Once you are at the NYT registration page:
- Search for and click the listing for "University of Alabama Law School".
- Click Create Account and complete registration fields. If you already have an NYT account, then click on the "Already have an account?" button.
For access to older content, including digital PDF scans of print editions for citation purposes, faculty and students may want to consider:
