Already Have an Account?

If you have previously registered your school-issued email address on The New York Times site, you will click the "Already have an account?" "Log in here" link (found below the "Create Account" button).

An email address may only be associated with one (paid) subscription at a time. As such, if a patron has an existing NYT (paid) account with a @ccsdetroit.edu email, they will need to cancel it first, before it can be associated with the CCS Library Site License. To cancel your subscription please contact NYT customer care:

Please note that canceling your account may result in the loss of saved articles, newsletters, or personalized account settings.

Once canceled, that will "free up" the @ccsdetroit.edu email and you can proceed with creating a new account at this page: Create an NYTimes Account.

*Please be advised that canceling a subscription only becomes effective at the end of your billing cycle. For more information about this policy please visit the NYT terms of sale for digital products.
