To: Danielle Farinacci <dfarinacci@xxxxxxxx>
Hi Danielle,
Hope you are well and I wanted to thank you for putting the trial out for
all BAISL schools to access. I actually wanted to let you know that based
on usage, I have extended it through 5/5 so if there’s anyway let folks
know it’s still accessible for a bit to get in there and browse the
resources, that would be great.
Have a great rest of your school year and Summer and when you are ready to
evaluate yourself, let’s be in touch.
Best,
Laura

Danielle, I hope this email finds you well. Thank you for the opportunity
to get a trial out to all of the member schools.
NewsBank has set up an open Preview of resources that can help with on
campus and virtual learning for all BAISL Schools. The preview will be
active through the end of March and includes the newest resource that
recently launched to support African American Studies, Race Relations,
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and much more. I’ve included User Guides for
each except for Black Life in America which is not available just yet.
Here are the links with a short description for each of the resources.
The username and password is: *BAISL2021*
*Black Life in America*: Illustrates the experience and impact of African
Americans as recorded by the news media from 1704-today. The new resource
is crucial for interpreting historical and current events in ways not
covered in most textbooks. Black Life in America offers deep and diverse
coverage from more than 87,000,000 documents.

critical thinking and classroom activates.

papers dated 1690 to 2000. Timeline/topic-based interface. Complete

As we discussed in our earlier correspondence, please provide my contact
information and have schools contact me directly with questions, to set up
individual demos and to work through pricing. NewsBank will work with the
BAISL schools to align any subscription with the fiscal budgets by
providing access at no fee and prorating subscriptions.
Again, I appreciate your effort in providing this information to the larger
group.
Have a great weekend,
