Archived Websites
The Washington Square News has been captured since 2013. There is a gap in capture of the website from 2016-2017. The website provides daily news to readers around NYU's Manhattan and Brooklyn campuses, Greenwich Village, Brooklyn Heights, and NYU's global campuses. The website offers news, culture, arts, editorial, sports coverage, photos and videos from around campus and New York City, in conjunction with the magazine, Under the Arch. In September 2020, the staff resigned from the newspaper. New articles were not added to the website until the Spring 2021 semester.
The crawls also include a capture of While You Were Here 2020, an annual magazine directed to seniors recapping their four years at NYU.
