Globe no longer in Lexis-Nexis

The Boston Globe had dropped out of LexisNexis. It no longer appears in the source list (under Boston or The--a common glitch).

Steve has suggested Factiva as an alternate source, and indeed it is there:

Most Recent Issue: 26 January 2010 First Issue: 1 January 1987 Weekend Update Schedule: The weekend editions are loaded on Factiva during a 1-3 day period after date of publication. Coverage History: Selected coverage from 1 January 1987 to 29 August 2001

Boston.com has recent material at no cost, and can serve as a handy index of "pay-per-view" articles which might be otherwise retrieved for free in Factiva.


The Boston Herald is in LexisNexis.
