Steps for Finding Newspaper Articles

The Pitt Libraries provide access to many collections of news sources, some of which are listed below. Nexis Uni is a good starting point for many topics, as it provides access to news outlets from all over the world and is updated every day, so it includes current news. 

Not sure where to start with finding newspaper articles? Consider visiting our Newspapers @ Pitt Research Guide which presents our newspaper subscriptions in searchable collections based on timeframe (historical or current), geographic area, and audience (readership).
