Q: Can I set up access to the New York Times All Digital Access from off campus?
A: Yes. Visit
accessnyt.com and follow the instructions. Find and select "University of Vermont - Burlington, VT" and then click the “Go” button if you are off campus.
Q: I have a paid New York Times subscription. Can I use the UVM group license instead?
A: If you have a paid subscription, you must cancel it before the account affiliated with that subscription can be linked to the UVM group license. Please see this New York Times support page detailing how to
cancel your subscription.
Q: I have an existing New York Times account but am not currently a paying subscriber. Can I use this free account to get access to subscription content with the UVM group license?
A: You may link an existing New York Times account to UVM’s group license so long as you do not currently have your own paid subscription associated with that account (see above). However, some users have experienced issues trying to utilize their existing accounts. If you are unable to successfully link your existing account with UVM’s group license, please contact
edu@nytimes.com and/or the
Howe Library reference desk for assistance.
Q: I was formerly a UVM student and created an account linked to the UVM group license. After some time away, I have returned to UVM. How do I reactivate my account?
A: As long as you do not have a personal subscription associated with your New York Times account (see above), you should be able to re-link it to the UVM group license. However, some users have experienced issues trying to utilize their existing accounts. If you are unable to successfully link your existing account with UVM’s group license, please contact
edu@nytimes.com and/or the
Howe Library reference desk for assistance.
Q: When I set up an account linked to the UVM group license, am I required to use my UVM e-mail address?
A: You may use a non-UVM e-mail address. If you do choose to use your UVM e-mail address, you may use either version: first.last@uvm.edu OR netid@uvm.edu.
Q: Once I have created my account, how do I actually get to the online newspaper?
A: Visit
nytimes.com and click "LOG IN." Alternatively, you may download the New York Times app on any device and log in through the app.
Q: When will my account expire?
A: UVM students will have access until they graduate. Faculty and staff members must renew once every four years; you may wish to mark the expiration date in your calendar because there are no subsequent reminders.
Q: I think my account expired. What should I do?
A: If you need to reactivate your account, follow
this link to activate a new pass. Some individuals are unable to reactivate their account from off campus; this process may work best when connected via a UVM campus network.
Q: I have forgotten when my account expires. Where can I look that up?
A: Go to
nytimes.com/grouppass If you are already logged in, or once you log in, you will see your subscription end date at the top of the screen.
Q: What if I forgot my password or want to change it?
A: You may reset your New York Times password any time at
nytimes.com/forgot.
Q: I do not have a valid UVM NetID. Can I use the UVM New York Times group license?
A: No, only people with valid UVM NetIDs can utilize UVM's group license.
