Tip:  What's a trade publication?
Trade publications are generally written by people within an industry for people within an industry.  For example, JCK is for people working in the jewelry industry, and the Chronicle of Higher Education is for people working at colleges and universities.  Trade publications give great insight into the culture, vocabulary, and inner workings of an industry. 

The UCI Libraries are proud to be the first in the UC System to offer campus-wide access to
The Wall Street Journal directly through WSJ.com! 

The UCI Libraries and The Wall Street Journal entered a partnership which provides sponsored WSJ memberships for all students, faculty and staff at UCI.  Each activated membership comes with personalized access to WSJ.com, the WSJ mobile app, industry-specific newsletters and podcasts, and exclusive experiences with access to special events and discounts through WSJ+.

How do current UCI affiliates (i.e. students, faculty, and staff with an active UCInetID and password) activate their complimentary membership?

• Visit WSJ.com/UCILibraries 
  ​
• Enter your UCInetID and password to access the Create Account page. 
   
• Use a UCI .edu email address to create your membership account.
   
• Students need to enter their graduation date when they register for membership.
   
• Faculty and staff need to renew their membership annually, and they will receive an automated email from WSJ with a renewal link.
   
• After your membership account is created:

• Simply use WSJ.com to access content.
• You can also download the WSJ mobile app.  When you launch the app, go directly to “Sign In.”

Do students receive additional benefits from Wall Street Journal after they graduate? 

Students with activated memberships qualify for significantly reduced promotional rates that continue for two years after graduating.  Students will receive an automated email upon graduation from WSJ inviting them to subscribe at those exclusive rates. 

Can current UCI affiliates who already have personal subscriptions cancel their membership?

Yes! 
Call 1-800-JOURNAL and mention that you are switching to the subscription provided by the University of California, Irvine. Partial refunds will be dispersed.
