'Newspapers Online' Now Covers CompuServe, America Online and Prodigy

New Edition of Directory Expands Coverage to Include Consumer Online
Services

BOSTON, MA (December 1, 1994)--Newspapers Online has been expanded to
include information on CompuServe, America Online, Prodigy, Delphi, and
Ziff's new Interchange service, with some Internet coverage. The new 1995
edition reference book contains information on searching consumer online
services for 200 newspapers that are also found on professional online
systems--Dialog, Nexis, Dow Jones News/Retrieval and DataTimes. Newspapers
Online is used by librarians and researchers who search for the kind of
information newspapers can provide: breaking stories, public reactions to
an issue or event, news about private companies and individuals, and local
perspectives. With newspapers from the U.S., Canada, Europe, the Middle
East and Asia and the Pacific, the book can help readers attain a global
perspective as well.

The new edition of Newspapers Online shows the 48 newspapers which have
launched electronic services, such as New York Times on America Online,
Atlanta Journal and Constitution on Prodigy, Detroit Free Press on
CompuServe, and Washington Post on Interchange. These electronic services
go beyond the printed version of the paper, usually carrying unpublished
stories (such as reports, press releases and newswires) and giving users
the opportunity to "chat" electronically with each other and the newspaper
staff.

Researchers, librarians and journalists use Newspapers Online because it
tells them where they can find the newspaper archives online and on CD-ROM
and how to search for articles. Librarians on staff at the newspapers have
shared valuable search tips for accessing their newspapers. These tips are
listed along with search tips for each of the vendors' online systems.

Newspapers Online contains demographic and geographic information about the
area the newspaper serves as well as detailed information about each
newspaper. Newspapers Online contains comprehensive and detailed
information in an easy-to-use format, all in one book. This is the third
edition of this popular reference book published by BiblioData and adds 50
new newspapers.

Susanne Bjorner, editor and compiler of Newspapers Online, searches
newspapers regularly for her own information consulting company, Bjorner &
Associates. Her articles have appeared in "Online", "LinkUp", "Searcher"
and other industry publications. She has taught information courses in
corporations, universities and for professional associations.
