Q. How do I access Economist articles from reading lists?


Anyone can read 3 free articles a month from the Economist. 

If, however, you are accessing an article on a reading list and you have reached your free article limit, you can either:

  • go onto campus or turn on the University VPN (all articles are available via our University of Portsmouth subscription)

  • set up a University of Portsmouth Economist account (available on and off campus).  To do this,  use this link and enter your University email address, then select University of Portsmouth and sign in your University username and password.
