Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need to register for a NYT account?
Logging in with an email and password allows the system to recognize your free subscription through the Nantucket Atheneum. You will also be able to save articles and access various NYT newsletters.
Why is offsite access only available for 24 hours?
Off-site access has a limited amount of codes to provide service when you are not at the library. This is intended as a supplement to in-house use. However, you can generate a new code every 24-hours so you will never be without access from home.
Can I use the NYT app?
Our subscription is compatible with the NYT app but only for off-site access through the links above to redeem a 24-hour code. The app will not sync through the public Wi-Fi when you’re at the library.
Is the NYT crossword available?
No, the NYT crossword and other NYT digital games are not available through this online service.
