Newspaper Databases

Newspaper Databases record current events. They provide facts, figures, trends, and opinions about history as it is being made. Much of the timely information needed by researchers is provided by newspapers.

Cayuga has 14 print newspaper subscriptions available in the library, as well as subscriptions to other newspaper databases. These newspaper databases provide access information on many topics from leading national and international newspapers, including citations, abstracts, and often full-text articles.
