New York Times

FAQs

Why use a Fort Lewis College subscription to read The New York Times online?

The New York Times requires a paid subscription for full access to its website, NYTimes.com. Your FLC subscription gives you unlimited access to all content on the site (1851 to present), except for a limited number of articles you can view from 1923 to 1980.

I already have a Times digital subscription, which gives me unlimited access to NYTimes.com. What should I do?

If you have an existing digital subscription, you are not eligible to activate an FLC subscription. Please contact edu@nytimes.com (support for institutions) to discuss your options.

Can I access The New York Times off campus?

Yes! Once you've activated your subscription, you can access it anywhere with an internet connection.

Can I access The New York Times from my mobile device?

You can access NYTimes.com and INYT.com on any device with a browser. Mobile apps for iPhone/iPod Touch (IOS 5.0+), Android (OS 2.1+), and Windows (7.5 O.S.) phones are included as part of Academic Pass. Mobile apps for tablets are NOT part of the Academic Pass. However, you can access the NYTimes.com mobile site (mobile.nytimes.com).

Why am I asked to login on some occasions and not others?

This may be because your browser may clear its web cache/history if it is set to do so. In such cases you will need to log back into NYTimes.com, but you can still use your Group Pass.

I still need help!

Please contact edu@nytimes.com.
