The Libraries' most current article subscriptions (via LexisNexis, Factiva, or ProQuest Central) are html full text only, which means they will NOT include images, advertisements, or other context included in the "as printed" version.

To view articles and full pages of the NYT as they appeared in print, access the print copies on the 3rd floor of Bobst in the periodicals and newspapers reading room, or the microform copies on Lower Level 2 of Bobst.
The Wall Street Journal
You can always use Proquest Central to access WSJ articles published in the paper. Use Factiva to access WSJ blog articles.
More information less...
NYU Libraries has limited access to Factiva. If you can't get into the database on your first try, wait a little and try again later.

Use the databases ProQuest Central or Factiva to also access digital-only articles from FT.com

To see the "as printed" version of the Washington Post, click on the link for "2018 – latest: PressReader." HTML full text articles are available through the other database links.
