Newspapers and FT.com at the Marshall Library - Jasper's Xmas Tip number 6

Print Newspapers

Fancy reading a daily print newspaper? During term-time we subscribe to The Times, The Daily Telegraph, Financial Times and The Economist.


You can find them by our easy chairs in the Reading Room.

Online Newspapers

You can access The Economist online by searching for The Economist on iDiscover via Proquest. Or you can go to the useful Newspapers Libguide: https://libguides.cam.ac.uk/newspapers

Here you will find many national and international newspaper archives on the left hand side under Newspaper Archives. Under Current newspapers on the right hand side of the guide under the picture you will find direct links to theo Economist, and the Financial Times. Clicking on this page takes you to a page that explains how to access FT.com online and how to register and set up your own account, so you can read FT.com on your own laptop, tablet, device or phone.

Also under Current newspapers you will find links to aggregator newspaper services e.g. Lexis Nexis and Factiva. These are great places to search for a particular news story or search by topic or theme. Lexis Nexis only covers UK news but Factiva is international, so you can find regional and national newspaper stories from across Europe and the US.
