The New York Times Online Access

Current UNH students, faculty, and staff can get online access to the New York Times through the library. The library's online access includes breaking news, archives, games, recipes, podcasts, newsletters, multimedia, Spanish and Mandarin Chinese versions of NYTimes.com, and more.

Creating a New Account

If you do not already have a New York Times account, visit: bit.ly/NYTOnlineAccess and select Create Account. Be sure to type University of New Hampshire in the school's name section, then follow the instructions based on your location.

Existing New York Times Subscribers

If you are already paying for a New York Times subscription, you can still get online access through UNH Library. Before signing up through the library, you will need to cancel your paid subscription.

After you have canceled your paid subscription, visit: bit.ly/NYTOnlineAccess and select the Already have an account? log in option. Log in using the username and password you were using with your paid subscription (not your UNH login information). This will allow you to take advantage of the library-provided access while preserving your previous account settings, such as your favorite podcasts and newsletters.
