Proquest Trial - Access to Current Irish Times Content

We previously mentioned that we have a trial at the moment to Proquest Historical Newspapers: The Irish Times and Weekly Irish Times which we're considering as an alternative to our current subscription to the Irish Times Digital Archive.

Since the Irish Times has recently moved to a paid subscription model for its online content, we are also reviewing our options regarding alternative means to access current Irish Times content.

Proquest has now offered us a trial to their Irish Times database. This provides access to the Irish Times content from 1995 to the present day (the current day's content is usually included from lunchtime each day).

Please try out Proquest's Irish Times database and let us know how it compares to the Irish Times own website.

Send your feedback to Ask a Librarian or to @DITAungierLib.
