NIE as we know it began at The New York Times in the 1930s when teachers in the New York City schools asked the newspaper to deliver bundles to schools for current events activities. Then, as now, the content of textbooks is already five years old the day the textbooks are delivered to schools. Over the decades, the NIE concept spread among newspapers across the country. In the late 1970s, the concept even spread to prisons, adult literacy centers, and hospital-based learning programs — far beyond the traditional classroom setting.

Newspapers are springboards to knowledge for everyone
