Recommended eBook databases:
To read current articles from newspapers, you could go to newspaper websites... but you might hit a paywall. Most newspapers will only show you a few articles if you don't have a subscription.
So, instead of going to newspaper websites to read today's articles, use the library databases, such as Factiva, Nexis Uni, or Newspaper Source Plus. They contain the same articles that you'd see on newspaper websites, and you can access them with your UMW username and password.
