Sorry for cross posting. Hi everyone, HighBeam is offering free accounts for Wikipedians with an account for one year and 1000 edits. So far only about 300 people have applied and they have 1,000 slots. HighBeam is a paid newspaper and journal resource, and as a researcher, even I don't have access to it, so I was happy to see this opportunity. And if you don't have the right amount of edits, you can have your Wikipedian friends find things for you ;-) See below! -Sarah -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Otrs-en-l] Free accounts available from HighBeam Research!

HighBeam has full versions of tens of millions of newspaper articles and journals and should be a big help in adding reliable sources--especially older and paywalled ones--into the encyclopedia. Sign-ups require a 1-year old account with 1000 edits on any Wikipedia. Here's the link to the project page: http://enwp.org/WP:HighBeam (account sign-ups are linked in the box on the right). Sign-up! And, please tell your Wikipedia-friends about the opportunity!
