How to Access the Herald Times Online for Free!

Super Awesome Thanks to u/theowlofminerva for typing up this guide!!

First, if you don't have a Monroe County Public Library card, here's how to get one:

Go to https://mcpl.monroe.lib.in.us/patronaccount/selfregister.aspx Fill out the requested information at that site.

Go to the 'home library' location you selected to pick up your card.

Once you've done so, you can learn how to set up a user name and password to log in and access online resources here:

https://mcpl.info/checkout/using-my-account

Once you've got an MCPL account set up, the following instructions will let you access the H-T:

Go to this Web site: http://ezproxy.monroe.lib.in.us/login?qurl=http%3A//infoweb.newsbank.com

Where prompted, log in with your library credentials (user name or barcode number, and password).

Click on "Herald-Times" under "Search shortuts" near the top of the page.

You can then select any day from the paper's archives. The last five days' worth of content will be in a column on the left, and archived content going back to April 1, 1988 can be accessed via the calendars on the right.

EDIT: We aren't affiliated with HTO in any way. Or at least I'm not. This was requested by redditors on the sub to show there are free, above board methods of accessing it.
