We have online access to Waterbury’s daily newspaper, Republican-American.
Many Republican-American articles are freely available online at http://www.rep-am.com, but if you come to an article with the message "You Need to be Logged in and have an Active Subscription", you may email Mr. Padgett, Ms. Taylor or Mr. Previti from your Taft email address for The Taft Library account username and password.

Currently, The Wall Street Journal is not available digitally through the library, but it is fully accessible on the day of publication via these ProQuest databases: ABI/INFORM Collection and U.S. Major Dailies.
To limit your search to WSJ, change the default search field from "Anywhere" to "Publication Title." To limit your search to the current day, select "On This Date" in the Publication Date field and enter the current date (month, day, year).
