Hopkins access to free or discounted "dot com" newspaper and magazine sites

Answer

Most newspapers and journals are available to Johns Hopkins students, faculty and staff through platforms like ProQuest or Nexis Uni. Use the Catalyst Journal Title search to find JH Libraries newspaper and journal subscriptions. The News and Newspapers guide also offers online news sources available through databases.

JH does have "dot com" access to these sites, which require JHED login via JH links:

Free access to current JH affiliates via account set-up:

  • Baltimore Banner: First-time users must register with for a free personal account, using your Hopkins email address using the jhed@jh.edu format.
  • New York Times Digital Edition: JH affiliates can register for free NYT content. This version works with desktop computers, tablets, mobile devices and the NYT app, but does not work with Kindle. Note this digital edition does not include Cooking, Games or Wirecutter content.
  • Financial Times Digital Edition: The first time you click on the link, register to create an account using your JH email. After you set that up, you can login to FT.com like a regular subscriber.
  • Wall Street Journal.com: The first time you click on the link, register to create an account using your JH email. After you set that up, you can login to WSJ.com like a regular subscriber.

  • As always, please contact a librarian if you have any questions.

  1. These instructions are vastly improved - thank you for taking another look. Will you inform when and if Bloomberg and the Atlantic become available? Thank you for this great service.

  2. Thanks Patrick! Yes for sure on the two you mentioned. They are still on the wish list, but we know they're of high value to the Hopkins community. If and when we get access, we'll add them to this list.
