Free Access to The New York Times

Did you know that a perk of being a UC Davis community member is free online access to The New York Times? If not, we invite you to activate your access and start enjoying it today.

The UC Davis Library purchased an academic license to NYTimes.com for use by all students, faculty, staff, clinicians and emeriti of UC Davis and UC Davis Health. If you have an authenticated UC Davis login, you have complimentary access. (Note: Faculty and staff may periodically be prompted to renew; for students, your access should remain active so long as you are enrolled).

To activate access:

  • Step 1: Visit AccessNYT.com while connected to the UC Davis network (via the Library VPN).
  • Step 2: Search for and click the listing for “University of California, Davis – Davis, CA.”
  • Step 3: Click “Create Account” and complete the registration fields.

If you have previously registered your email address on The New York Times site, go through Steps 1 and 2 and then click the “Already have an account? Log in here” link (below the “Create Account” button) in Step 3.
