  1. Hi, if you wanted to use our library subscription you would have to come to Oxford, register as a reader and use it in our reading rooms, I’m afraid. We have a particular licence which doesn’t permit us to provide remote access.

    However, if you were to register with the British Library, then you will be able to get remote access to both parts of the Latin American Newspapers. See https://www.bl.uk/help/about-remote-eresources for more details. I hope this helps! Isabel

  2. I am not an Oxford university student but I am a Latin American living in London and I would love to have access to my history.
    Is there any other way to have access to these newspapers without having to register?
