As of May 16, 2012, Lakes District News subscribers will enjoy full access to the newspaper's premium online content at no additional cost.
That means all website content is now included in the cost of your paid subscription.
Subscribers will enjoy privileges such as the ability to forward stories via email or social media accounts, participate in online discussions and access all content.
Thank you for choosing the Lakes District News as your trusted source of in-depth local news and information. We are pleased to bring you coverage of news, sports, and more 24 hours a day.
Effective May 16, 2012, we will introduce charges for digital subscriptions for those who do not subscribe to our print edition. In doing so, we join a growing number of newspaper companies across the country that have taken this step.
As with other papers that have begun charging for premium content online, we view this as an investment in the future so we can continue our mandate to offer a credible report of news, information and opinion.
No organization can match the Lakes District News for breadth and depth of local news, and revenue derived from digital subscriptions will contribute to the ongoing investment in that mandate.
All subscribers to the Lakes District News print edition will have access at no additional charge to all content at www.ldnews.net.
If you receive the paper via the regular mail go to www.ldnews.net/subscribe/ and enter your subscription number from your newspaper's address label, into the portion of the page marked "Current print subscribers" and you will be asked to answer a few short questions, after which your subscription will be verified and you will have complete access to our site.
All access entitles you to:
