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.
As of Fall 2021, students that claim a pass will retain access through graduation. Students that claimed a pass prior to the Fall of 2021, as well as faculty and staff, will need to reclaim passes when they expire. 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.
