When it comes to historical research, news articles can be a valuable resource for academic writers. But how can you find the right articles and use them in your research paper? This guide will provide you with the answers. To start, you can search for the article online. Look for the title of the article in quotation marks (and the author's name, if the title is common) in the red search box on the home page (in the Articles tab). If the article is not available online or if you need to view it as published with original graphics, perform a catalog search of the newspaper title in the library catalog.
So why would newspapers, and The New York Times in particular, be a valuable resource for authors of academic journal articles? A recent study analyzed the subject areas of these publications and the frequency with which journal articles citing these newspapers were cited in other academic articles. This shows that news articles can be a great source of information for research papers. If you can't find a particular article, you may be able to search online for people who are talking about it. This may lead you to a copy of the journal article or study.
