How do I access the New York Times?

Answer

Webster University's Student Government Association (SGA) provides free NYTimes.com online access to current students, faculty, and staff. The current Crossword Puzzle and Epicurious access are not a part of this program.

Students, faculty and staff with Vienna as their primary service location should contact the Webster Vienna Library to receive access.
