Responding to our patron needs, UBC Library has been investigating ways on how best to increase access to and gather more reliable information about North Korea.  We are now pleased to announce that with generous funding support from the Centre for Korean Research at the Institute of Asian Research, we have managed to secure a one-year subscription of NK News.

Funded primarily by its subscribers, NK News is a unique and independent voice focusing on today’s North Korea. Content includes breaking news, in-depth investigations, exclusive interviews and analysis from leading experts.  The majority of its contents and database are also available for English speaking audiences providing a range of data tools to aid research on North Korea.

Please contact Hana Kim, Head, Asian Library, at hn.kim@ubc.ca directly if you have any questions about the database.
