Yorktown Public Library is pleased to offer free onsite access to the digital version of The New York Times. This means that anytime you’re in the library, you can read The New York Times online for free without article limits. You can access NYT on our computers or your own device. We also have a tablet available by our print newspapers which you may use to read on the NYT app while in the library.
Access NYT Offsite
If you want to access NYT outside of the library, you may be granted 24 hour access by clicking the button in the sidebar. You’ll be asked to sign into an existing NYT account or create a new one. Once you’re logged in, your 24 hour access will begin.
Yorktown Public Library is fully committed to providing accessible facilities, elements and
channels of communication to all members of the public. As part of this commitment, Yorktown Public Library
has a policy of providing an accessible website compatible with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) and
commercial screen reading software. All features of the website are coded to allow individuals with vision and
other impairments to understand and use the website to the same degree as someone without disabilities. We welcome
feedback and can often resolve issues in a timely manner if they arise.
If you need any special assistance or accommodations:
Yorktown Public Library has designated a compliance officer for website disability-related accommodations.
The compliance officer has received training in website accessibility and updates the site in accordance with those best
practices. Contact our accessibility officer to report an issue.
Compliance Procedures and Reports
In addition to testing with users with a wide range of disabilities and coding our website to WCAG standards,
Yorktown Public Library regularly scans its website to ensure ongoing compliance, and makes timely
changes to any inaccessible changes, if any are found.
Linked Documents and Third Parties
Please note that this site may link out to third-party websites, such as state or federal agencies, that do
not have accessible content. This site may also include documents provided by third parties included in our
agenda packets, for example. While we cannot control the accessibility of content provided by third parties,
we are happy to assist any member of the public with reading and accessing content on our site.
