Newspaper Search

27 10 2006

You never know what interesting bits and pieces you’ll find in the newspapers especially the weekend ones for good long articles.

However they can be a bit frustrating for finding information on a specific topic unless you it happenes to be news right now.

This is where something like ProQuest comes in handy. If you have a library card from a local library chances are excellent that you can just put in the number from your card and use this. It let’s you search hundreds of newspapers years back and it’s dead handy.

For example I just typed in “weblog” and got 408 articles about them to choose from. This strikes me as a very handy tool.
