New York Times

NYTimes.com Passes are available for current Ithaca College students, faculty, and staff. Once you activate a pass, you will have access to The New York Times online without needing your own subscription.* Passes expire one-year after registration. Current students, faculty, and staff can reclaim passes annually. While you have an active pass, you will be able to use The New York Times website and apps from anywhere, without first connecting through the library.

To get access, you will need to claim a NYTimes.com Pass. You might need to enter your Netpass information, then you should be brought to a welcome screen.

If you are claiming a pass for the first time: Click Create Account, enter your ithaca.edu email address, set a password, and click Create Account again.

If you are renewing an expired pass or if you already have an nytimes.com account with your ithaca.edu email: Click "Already have an account? Log in here" and enter your account information.

If you have a personal paid NYT Digital Subscription and want to cancel it and claim a pass: You must change the email address associated with your account to your ithaca.edu email address and cancel your existing subscription before you can claim a pass. Then claim a pass, selecting "Already have an account? Log in here," and enter your ithaca.edu email and existing password.

Upon successful account creation or confirmation, you should be brought to a Start Your Access screen which will contain a note about your account's expiration date. Once this registration process is complete, you will be able to access The New York Times online without having to connect through the library's website -- simply access nytimes.com and its features directly using the email and password that you just registered!

Note: If you use the "Already have an account? Log in here" option and have trouble claiming a pass: You should try logging out of your nytimes.com account first and then try claiming a pass. You may also need to log out of your account in NYTimes apps and log back in for your subscription status to sync.
