I use the library online system a lot. Reading House and Garden, Country life and others. For free. Scroll down in the Libby app and you will find press reader. Where you get full access to many newspapers in the UK and the world. I read Wall St Journal, Washington post, The Telegraph and a few other foreign language ones. All for free. And there is more. You can search for an article in paywall papers such as the Times and others. FT is though only in that database with a delay of 30 days. And the Economist never. Each to their own but paying for FT online access is £ 1 a day and the Economist 50p.

I would just like to remind forum readers that if you have an Oxfordshire Library card and have signed up for online access you can 'borrow' that New Scientist issue and read the article online. That's what I did, and then blew a half hour reading the rest of the issue.
