Recent news stories from North Carolina can be found in many places. 

1. NC LIVE's Community Newspapers: http://library.duke.edu/research/subject/guides/ncnews/

2. Google News: https://news.google.com/

3. For archives or for articles that aren't available freely online, here's how to check to see if you have access: 

  • You can check NC LIVE's newspapers holdings here: http://atoz.ebsco.com/home.asp?Id=K12589 . If NC LIVE has the title on this list, it will be available online. Check the dates to make sure it has what you need. 
  • You can also check your local library's online catalog for the names of newspapers you are interested in. Libraries often have these in non-online formats, such as microfilm. For assistance with using these, ask your local librarians. 
  • If you have access to a local academic library, you may want to check their holdings as well. Many university libraries allow you to use their online resources or archival resources if you are physically inside the libraries.
4. Finally, you can almost always request articles from your library through interlibrary loan. Check with your local library's help desk for more help.
