Premium New York Times Content - Free to Students & Faculty

ZiefBrief has just heard from BoleyBlogs that the New York Times is unlocking its premium "TimesSelect" content for university students and professors — and it's free, provided you register with a current academic (".edu") email address.

TimesSelect gives subscribers access to the New York Times op-ed and news columnists, and to a searchable New York Times archive going back to 1851.

To get started, visit the TimesSelect University Discount page.

[Update, 4.4.2007] ZiefBrief has learned that the New York Times offer is not as generous as it sounded at first blush. For details, see today's post New York Times Reneges on Offer.
