The most comprehensive collection of full-text
newspapers globally, Access World News provides
extensive coverage at any level—local, state,
regional, national and international. This fully
searchable Web-based resource features the
vast majority of U.S. newspapers by circulation,
along with almost one thousand hard-to-find local
and regional titles, the majority of which are
unavailable elsewhere. Additionally, Access World
News offers searchable news video clips and over a thousand international news
sources from scores of countries on six
continents, translated into English when written
in other languages.
News can happen anywhere
When news breaks in small towns or large cities across the U.S. and around the
globe, Access World News enables researchers to gain valuable local perspectives
by zeroing in on the sources closest to the events. Updated daily, Access World
News fully supports patrons’ diverse needs with more than 190 million current and
archived news articles. Researchers can pinpoint information, compare diverse
views and track subjects geographically and over time with the deepest newspaper
archives available.
One click access to global perspectives
Access World News features an intuitive, map-based interface—developed in partnership with librarians—which can be customized to highlight specific newspapers and to meet the unique needs of libraries, staff and patrons. Without training, users can easily select and search a single newspaper, multiple titles across a state, region or country or all the sources in the database.
Enchanced interface improves search results
With NewsBank’s streamlined new interface, users can pinpoint useful information and navigate quickly and efficiently through millions of articles and video clips. Access World News also supports OpenURLs, so librarians can use persistent links in materials such as reading lists, and MARC records, so researchers can link directly from the OPAC to each newspaper’s search page. Finally, patrons can easily browse, print and email articles. |
