How to: get the AP Day Schedule

Filed under: Electronic resources, Courts, Types of journalism, Beat reporting, FAQ, AP Daybook - journalismlibrary @

If you want to pull up the New York daily schedule from the AP, and are not in a computer lab with access to the ENPS system, just connect to Factiva) (access restricted to current Columbia affiliates).

Once connected, in the “Free Text” box at the top, just type the words

ny day schedule

exactly as they appear above. Insert no punctuation, quotation marks, search connectors or parentheses.

BEFORE running the search, look at the “More Options” section, towards the bottom of the screen. Make sure that the option to exclude “obituaries, sports, calendars” has not been checked (if it has, just un-check it).

Please note that the AP ENPS system in the labs is not a library resource, so questions about ENPS should be directed to the J-school technical team via trouble@jrn.columbia.edu.

If you are looking for the calendar of the NY courts, see this link.
