Access World News Just Got Better!

Yesterday, the Access World News interface underwent many updates that will help users find information easier. 

Users Can
  • Compare/Contrast different perspectives by state, region, country, or continent
  • Refine Searches
    • By title, date source type, or geographical location
    • Display topic and event results over time
    • Find differing viewpoints
  • Sort by name, date, location, and source type
  • Limit searches by word count to filter out news briefs and minor articles
Other Enhancements
  • Customization options for librarians (we are currently investigating exactly what we may customize)
  • Interactive map
  • Print, email, and cite articles easier
  • Flexible tools for exporting citations to RefWorks, EndNote, and Procite (we are also investigating how this option works)
Please check out the new enhancements in Access World News.
