The collection includes not only major U.S. titles such as The New York Times and The Boston Globe, but also acclaimed journals and publications such as the New Scientist. Additionally, staff and patrons from around the globe can browse e-Editions of non-English newspapers in their original language: for instance, Le Monde in French, El País in Spanish, The Sekai Nippo in Japanese, etc. All Web browsers are supported, and no additional software is required.
