[Tasl] NewsBank for TEL Libraries

[Pat Thompson]

Follow-up to Jeanne Sugg's message last Friday about NewsBank:
 
We now have full-text access for the four metropolitan Tennessee newspapers for all Tennessee residents!  The Tennessee Electronic Library (TEL) now provides full-text content of Chattanooga Times-Free Press, The Commercial Appeal (Memphis), Knoxville News-Sentinel, and The Tennessean (Nashville).
 
You may go to the Tennessee Newspaper Collection from the Tennessee State Library and Archives Web site located at www.tennessee.gov/tsla and click the link in the "News and Updates" section.  Soon the TEL access link will be moved to a central TEL Web portal that is presently under development.
 
You may also create a link on your library's Web page using this link:   http://infoweb.newsbank.com ( http://infoweb.newsbank.com/ ) .  You should be able to link directly via IP address authentication.  If asked for username and password, enter "elvis"  (lower case) for both.
