Search tips

You can search for news items in a number of ways.

Library Search

You can search multiple news sources at once via Library Search. Newspapers are excluded by default so click or tap on the Newspapers search link in the top tool bar. Within a search you can choose newspaper from the resource menu. 

Use quotation marks, for example "the Washington Post", to look for a particular news source and choose the title from the drop down menu. 

News stream databases

Searching within a news database is really helpful when searching on a topic. The sources include newspapers, and news and current affairs television and radio program transcripts. Check out the Australian or International news pages to link to the best sources.
