WISER Social Sciences: News sources for research Mark Janes Social Sciences Subject Consultant mark.janes@ouls.ox.ac.uk http://questionmarkssl.blogspot.com/

Why use news sources for research? Source of factual information when official documents not available Zeitgeist News and public opinion News and political communication Bias, media control, and regulation Newspaper readership and political/class/social status Geographic and historical comparisons

The evolution and devolution of news Online newspapers/ news sites 24 hour TV news Digital and Internet radio RSS feeds Podcasts Citizen journalism (You Tube/Mobile phone video, Blogs) Forums

The evolution and devolution of news

Searching news sources Libraries hold very few print copies of newspapers (exception: UK newspapers in the Bodleian, some foreign newspapers in the Taylorian) Microfilms expensive and increasingly out of favour Large aggregate databases (easy to search full-text but coverage varies) Digital archives (multimedia and text, in development)

Available Resources (via SOLO or OxLIP+) General/ Aggregate sources for Newspapers Nexis UK (formerly Lexis-Nexis News) Factiva EMIS (Emerging Markets Information Service) Westlaw Eastview Russian Newspapers Historical Newspapers Times Digital Archive Proquest: New York Times, Wall Street 19th Century Newspapers (UK)

Available Resources (via SOLO or OxLIP+) Specialist news publications (industry, trade, political, legal) FT.Com (Financial Times online) Business Source (Country Reports, Business and Trade) Oxford Analytica (Political analysis) ABI/Inform (Trade and Industry publications) Ethnic Newswatch (Mainly US, ethnic press) Nikkei Telecom21 TVRadio transcripts EMIS BBC Monitoring (via Nexis UK, Factiva) Factiva
