E-resource Highlight: America's News Upgrade

Submitted by kristine.magers on Wed, 06/10/2020 - 09:51

America's News was recently updated to include color image editions of some newspapers--most notably for us, the Tulsa World [1] and The Oklahoman [2]. The text edition of The Oklahoman goes back to 1981, but the image edition is new to Newsbank. They will be adding current issues each day going forward and add back issues slowly. All May issues are currently available as image editions. The image edition can be a good alternative to the Oklahoman Digital Archives for customers who like to read newspapers in the format and style that they're printed. To browse other titles with image editions available from across the nation in America's News, click the A-Z Source List link at the top and sort by Format.

All Oklahoma newspapers available in America's News can be found here [3] and in the Quick Links section of the homepage of America’s News [4]. The Oklahoman Collection has also been broken out and linked directly on the Database A-Z list on metrolibrary.org under the title "Oklahoman Collection from Newsbank". To learn more about this resource, a 30-minute walkthrough video can be found here [5]. At around 18:30, you can see a demonstration of the image edition functions.
