How do I search World News Digest?

Access the World News Digest.  Note: If you're off-campus, you will be prompted to login with your myPVCC username and password.
 

Step 2:

World News Digest compiles news articles related to current and historical events dating back to 1940.  Most of these news articles are either compiled by World News Digest editors, or they come from Reuters.  (Reuters is one of the largest news agencies in the world, and they sell news articles to newspapers and other media outlets.  They provide "just the facts" and the media outlets who use them provide the spin.)
