The Smith College Libraries are pleased to provide complimentary online access to The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post for all Smith students, faculty, and staff.

To Access the New York Times

To access the New York Times for the first time:

• Go to accessnyt.com
• You will be prompted to sign up for a New York Times account, using your Smith e-mail address. This is essentially creating your own personal account under the umbrella of the library subscription.
• You will then be able to go directly to nytimes.com or use the NYT app to gain full access with the account you've created. 
• Faculty and staff will need to renew their account every four years. To do so, go to the libraries' New York Times link, click on "Already have an account? Log in here" and then reaffirm your faculty or staff status when prompted. Once you've done this, you'll be able to return to logging in directly on the New York Times site.

Spanish and Chinese language editions also available. NYT games and puzzles are not included in this subscription.

If you would like to cancel a personal subscription now that you have access through the Smith Libraries, you can contact customercare@nytimes.com or call 800-591-9233.

To Access the Wall Street Journal

To access the Wall Street Journal for the first time:

• Go through the Databases A-Z list, or use this link.
• The link will send you through the Smith authentication log-in, and then you'll be prompted to create your own Wall Street Journal account (which does not need to be the same as your Smith log-in; you can use a personal e-mail address).
• You will then be able to go directly to wsj.com or use the WSJ app to gain full access with the account you've created. International editions are also available.
• Faculty and staff will need to renew their account annually.

If you would like to cancel a personal subscription now that you have access through the Smith Libraries, call 1-800-Journal.

To Access The Washington Post

When on the campus IP range, there is no need to sign in. For off-campus access and for added functionality, you can create your own account.

1. On the Washington Post website, select Sign In, then Connect with Google. Select your Smith email account and follow the prompts to complete your account creation.
2. Once you're logged in, select your name in the top right, select Account Settings, then select My Subscriptions. 
3. Finally, select the Activate free digital access button.

Access includes current news coverage from The Post’s expert reporting and analysis from Washington and around the world. While The Washington Post, published since December 6, 1877, has long been considered the newspaper of record when it comes to politics and global affairs, The Post also contains smart and thoughtful reporting on topics ranging from climate solutions, health and wellness to food and cooking. Students, staff and faculty alike will not only benefit from reading The Post’s coverage, but also enjoy The Post’s interactives and videos.
