Other Current News Sources

We are often asked about access to other kinds of news sources.
 
Wall Street Journal Online (WSJ.com) Access
Trexler Library offers current students, faculty, and staff the option to have full access to all The Wall Street Journal content on the wsj.com website. See the Wall Street Journal Online guide for instructions for setting up your individual account.
 
The Wall Street Journal can also be accessed online (text only) via: https://search-proquest-com.muhlenberg.idm.oclc.org/publication/10482  This Subscription offers access to articles from 1984 the present. 
 
Chronicle of Higher Education
Also, for particular interest to faculty and staff at Muhlenberg, the library also provides digital access to The Chronicle of Higher Education. While on campus, you should be able to read articles directly. To access articles off-campus you must have a Chronicle account under your Muhlenberg email address. Create a Chronicle account here: http://www.chronicle.com/account/create using your Muhlenberg email address. You can set up the account while on-campus or off-campus.

This is just a small sampling of what we provide access for in the mainstream news realm. We also have a variety of other print and online news sources, including a range of magazines, as well as some resources in other languages. While we cannot provide universal access to all news sources, we strive to meet a broad range of needs. Should you have any questions or are not sure about how to access any of these, please reach out to any of the librarians. Additionally, we are happy to work with you on how you can provide links to these resources, articles, or other sources directly into your courses in Canvas by working with either your subject specialist or with library reserves.
