Redesigned PressReader

Submitted by sadie.bruce on Tue, 03/28/2017 - 08:39

Starting next week, PressReader will redirect to a brand new interface. 

Enjoy all of the features of old PressReader with an updated look with modern functionality.

Features Include:

  • Front-page News -- the front page of the interface offers categories such as Top News, Business, Sports, and the World in Pictures.
  • Multi-title searching -- users can search across all titles and the entire 60-day rolling archive.
  • Full-page and custom area printing for all titles -- users can print page images, in addition to article-level printing available in SmartNavigation titles.
  • Article Rank -- measures the interest or popularity of an article, which is determined by the length of time readers spend on that specific article and by the overall attention the article received from all users. Article Rank is continually updated to reflect the most current reading preferences as determined by Library PressDisplay readers.
  • My Newspapers -- library staff can customize the front page to display the newspapers their patrons read most.
  • Multilingual Interface -- the interface is available in English, French, Russian, Italian, German, and Arabic.
