Shebengal Posted January 17, 2022 Report Share Posted January 17, 2022 To the Central Ohio fans: I have found a way to access the Cincinnati Enquirer without having to subscribe. If you have a Columbus library card, you can log into their website, select “E-Content”, then scroll down until see a link for “US News Stream “. Once you click on that, you have to log in with your library card number and pin (usually the last 4 digits of your phone number) and then search for the Cincinnati Enquirer. Once you find it, click on “Go to Publication Page”. I only went back 3 days but it had all the sports stories and Doc’s columns. Also, you can access the Columbus Dispatch through the Press Reader link on the E-Content page. I don’t know if other cities’ libraries offer this service, but it may be worth poking around your library website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebengal Posted January 17, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2022 You can thank hubby for part of it. He’s the one who discovered the Dispatch access. I just poked around further and found the Enquirer access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never heard of such thing It’s a card that lets you check stuff out of your library, Or nowadays lets you check out and access e-content also. They’re free and I think some libraries, you can request one online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In our City, we have closed a lot of libraries due to lack of use. As a lad, we spent a lot of time in the local library - no computers or internet at that time.

My library has saved me a fortune in books that I don’t have to buy. I’m fortunate to have a great library system in Columbus, and my branch is within walking distance.
