This month, we’re spotlighting one of our most useful databases, Newsbank’s Access World News (AWN). AWN provides a straightforward way of finding news articles, both from many of the largest newspapers and many of the smaller ones on some of most important issues and events of the day. This makes AWN especially good for researching local topics that can be hard to find elsewhere. The specific DC sources include: El Pregonero, the Washington Informer, and the Washington Times.
More than 16,000 news sources focusing on newer current events in 200 countries (in Latin America, Africa, Asia, Australia/New Zealand, Europe, as well as North America).
Has a “hot topic link” that quickly provides access to content of some of the most important current topics. This is updated every month and provides a great background on what is happening in the world.
