The
Kitchener Public Library is pleased to introduce
Newspaper Direct, an exciting
new service that gives KPL access to direct
feeds of newspaper publishers from around
the world.
These
newspapers are same day editions of internationally
recognized newspapers in their originating
language. We have the flexibility to pick
and choose the newspapers we want to subscribe
to and change newspaper titles whenever
we wish.
