The Miami-Dade Public Library System (MDPLS) has added free unlimited access to The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and Consumer Reports online to its extensive collection of online digital resources.

Additionally, ABCmouse, a popular digital education program with thousands of learning activities for children ages 2–8, is accessible from home through ABCmouse Home Checkout. All these products are available for free with a MDPLS library card.

“Our Miami-Dade Public Libraries offer invaluable services and resources that are available to all,” said Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava. “The addition of these new resources will help ensure that everyone in our community has access to tools to help them learn, grow and thrive without having to incur the cost of personal subscriptions.”

Miami-Dade Public Library System director Ray Baker, added, “We continue to focus on providing a wide range of print and digital content options for our residents to enjoy from home, work or at any of our 49 locations using the power of their library card.”

Patrons can stay informed with access to top-notch news, business, health and lifestyle reporting and more from around the nation and the world with The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal online and become smarter consumers and save money with access to unbiased product reviews, ratings and buying guides for everything from cars and baby gear to appliances and electronics with Consumer Reports online.
