CHIHUAHUA NEWS DATABASE/HEMEROTECA DIGITAL DE CHIHUAHUA The Chihuahua News Database, provided by Información Procesada(INPRO), contains full text articles from Mexican newspapers and magazines from and about the state of Chihuahua and the border region. Most of the information in the database is in Spanish, although it does contain articles from the El Paso Times and some other English language sources. In addition to local papers from Ciudad Juarez and Chihuahua, the database contains articles that pertain to Chihuahua and the northern border region from many other Mexican publications. Time coverage: 1976 to the present. Access to the Chihuahua News Database is password protected and is limited to NMSU students, faculty and staff. Please call the NMSU Library Reference Desk at 505-6465792, or Molly Molloy at 505-646-6931, or email Molly Molloy, [email protected] for login and password information and for assistance in using the database.

The default database (Banco actual) is 2004. Click “Agregar criterio (add terms). Choose a “Llave (search key)” In most cases, you will get the best results with “Nota” which searches the full text of articles. When you choose “Nota” the “Operador” automatically changes to “Contenga (contains). If you search by “Fecha” the operators will change to allow you to put in a date range. Type search terms in the box labeled “Elemento de comparacion” !!!Enclose ALL search terms in “quotation marks” even single words!!!!! Combine search terms using operators (must be capitals) Y = AND O = OR A few more search examples: “new mexico state university” ("maquilas" O "maquiladoras") Y "china" “guadalupe morfin” “feminicidio” “desaparecidos” Y “familiares” (“desaparecidos” O “muertas” O “muertos”) Y “investigacion” Y “justicia” ("senador" O "senator") Y "Bingaman" Example: “narco” “narco” Y “violencia” Take care to search terms several different ways. Spanish language articles may use different spellings for English words or names. The database contains no controlled vocabulary. If the word or name is misspelled in the database, it won’t show up in your search results (unless you misspell it the same way…) Search Results Display, print, save To see search results, click the button next to the article you want to see. Articles can be displayed (one at a time) in several formats: WORD, HTML, PDF. The full text of the article will display in a new window. WORD format can be saved as a file to be printed later. PDF format can be saved to disk or printed out. HTML can also be copied and pasted into a document for printing or saving. There is no way (that I have discovered) to mark records for printing or emailing. Each article must be displayed, printed or saved individually. You can also copy and paste the text into an email message. !!!LOGOUT INFORMATION!!! Since only one user can get into this database at a time, be sure to click the SALIR button to logout of the system when you are finished searching. Do not just close the browser window.
