Click here to read today's Houston Chronicle online exactly as you would see it in print. From outside the library, you will need to enter your library-card number to proceed. Select today's date to begin loading the "image version" of the daily paper. Today's paper posts early each morning. Select a different date, going back to October of 2017, to see an earlier newspaper.

While inside a Fort Bend County Library, click here to register for full access to nytimes.com, free of paywalls. Cardholders, click here from home and redeem the resulting promo code to obtain a 72-hour unlimited-use session.
nytimes.com is a constantly-updated news portal produced by The New York Times, not a digital-image version of The New York Times print edition. Keep track of the log-in credentials you create. Then, read the digital version of The New York Times in your browser or download the free mobile app.
Access from outside the library expires after 72 hours, but you can always click on the from-home link again to generate another 72-hour promo code and log in using the same email address and the password you already created.
