Hi Christi, You do not have to buy a whole subscription to get access to the archives, You can purchase smaller access rights for small fees. I have used the $12.95 one and located a few articles that never showed in the free access search, it was well worth the small print fee they charged. The charges are based on the article you decide to view in full, and you can print from that page to have a copy. There is no charge to get a small snip of any article to see if it is relevant to your search. Chicago Tribune Week Pass (15 Articles) $12.95 Chicago Tribune 24-Hour Pass (5 Articles) $9.95 Chicago Tribune Document Purchase $3.95 If you want to try this go here http://www.chicagotribune.com/ and click on this link at the bottom of the page Archives: 1852-present<http://www.chicagotribune.com/archives/> type in your search, you then decide to view the free snip or the pay full article. If you chose the dollar sign, that is when you purchase as many articles as you want to buy. I really enjoy these options and find it is well worth the few dollars they ask for.

Hi Christi, Check with your library to see if they have access to Newsbank. If they do, see if you can access it from your home computer. You will have to talk to your library to see if they give home access.
