New York Times Historical Archive online - now with index

Our subscription to the electronic version of the New York Times Historical Archive now includes the New York Times Index. This is the digitised version of the print index volumes (which we have in the reference section on the ground floor), fully integrated into the online archive of the newspaper. Please note, however, that while the NYT itself is available up to 2007, the Index stops in 1993.

When searching the archive, you will now find that (in the advanced search screen) you can search fields specific to the Index - Company/Organization, Creative Work, Location, Person and Subject - both on their own and together with the full text/citation/abstract fields that were already available. Search results will now be enhanced with information from the index (click on 'abstract').

The New York Times Historical Archive is available via OxLIP+. Use single sign-on for remote access.
