To re-activate, follow the "Already have an account?" prompt. Please be advised that all Pratt patrons will need to re-activate annually to keep using this subscription.
Already have a personal (paid) account with your pratt.edu email?
An email address may only be associated with one (paid) subscription at a time. A such, if a patron has an existing NYT (paid) account with a @pratt.edu email, they will need to cancel it first, before it can be associated with the Pratt Institute Libraries Site License. To cancel your subscription please contact NYT customer care:

Once canceled, that will "free up" the @pratt.edu email and you can proceed with creating a new account at this page: Create an NYTimes Account.
*Please be advised that canceling a subscription only becomes effective at the end of your billing cycle. For more information about this policy please visit the NYT terms of sale for digital products.
