Abstracts of articles from The New York Times.
NYAB provides abstracts of articles from The New York Times - one of
the United States' most highly respected daily newspapers.
The New York Times gives you access to authoritative coverage of
international, national and local news in areas such as business and
financial affairs, economics and politics, law and order, social
issues, sports, arts and culture; as well as renowned reporting of
general news events.
In addition, The New York Times is one of the best sources for
coverage of news and issues affecting the metropolitan area of New
York City and its environs.
Precise citations for each article are given - including publication
date, section, page and column number, and journalist's name - thus
allowing easy referral to NYAB's sister-file - NYTI - which contains
the full text of New York Times articles back to 1981.
Each document is thoroughly indexed to allow consistent retrieval of
relevant information.
Use NYAB to answer questions like:
- what is the current state of relations between the Bosnian Serbs
and Muslims?
- is German chemicals giant Hoechst involved in any ventures in
North America?
- what sort of biographical information is available on T. Boone
Pickens?
- what are the projections for economic growth in the member nations
of NAFTA ?
- what resolutions have been recently passed by the United Nations
Security Council?
- where can I find a report on the recent game between the New York
Yankees and the Boston Red Sox?

Abstracts are taken from the final Late Edition of The New York Times.
