- Read Breaking News: Web news services, such as Yahoo! News or Google News, which receive frequent news feeds from press services, are a good way to track breaking news stories. Web sites of broadcast news organizations (television and radio networks) and blogs are also useful for up-to-date news.
- Browse Newspaper Sites: Large circulation national newspapers (New York Times, Christian Science Monitor) put daily content on the Web along with breaking news updates and special Web features. Use a newspaper directory to locate other local or international papers quickly.
- Use Personalized News Services: You may set up a personalized news service to receive stories on topics of interest to you. You can also use a news aggregator site, like Bloglines, to collect new entries from blogs (Weblogs) and other news sources.
- Search News Databases: Specialized news-only databases are the best tools for current events research. Library databases such as Lexis-Nexis Academic offer additional searching flexibility to help find useful stories quickly.
