Newspaper Direct Press Display

The Newspaper Direct Press Display function on the Calgary Public Library site is one of my favorites. This service allows you to read newspapers from around the world on your PC or tablet. You will require a bit of scrolling and zooming if using small tablet.

To access the website point your browser to www.calgarypubliclibrary.com. Along the top of the webpage you will see this bar:

Click the E-library link. In the bottom left section of the next webpage you will see a menu as follows :

Click the Newspaper Direct Press Display link. Enter your Calgary Library card and pin numbers and click Sign In.

After you log in you will see a title bar with some icons across the top.

Choose the publication from the Select Title drop down and read any newspaper or publication you find in the list.

Simple as that. I LOVE this because you can read the newspaper every day for the cost of the CPL Card ($12.00/year). Even better that you can read it at home in your jammies drinking your morning beverage! It's also nice to be able to read your local papers while you are on vacation!
