• Look to the left side of the screen for the list of "Quick Links" and click on the third item, "Databases / Find Articles;"
• Go to "Browse indexes / databases by name" and click on the letter "A";
• The list of indices/databases will be displayed. Look for "Academic Search (Lexis-Nexis)" and click on the words;
• When the Lexis-Nexis screen has opened go the left side and find the words, "Academic Search Forms." Click on: "News";
• The new search screen will now be displayed. If the "Guided News Search" box is not displayed, switch to it by using the tabs at the top of the search box;
• Go to "Step One: Select a news category" and click on the arrow in the drop down box. Scroll down to the sixth item on the list, "Transcripts" and click on it;
• Go to "Step Two: Select a news source" and again click on the arrow. This time click on the desired item (e. g. National Public Radio Transcripts);
• Finally, enter a "Search Term(s)" and set the "Date" range, then click on the "Search" button.
