About the Boston Herald Newspapers In Education Program
The Boston Herald Newspapers in Education (NIE) program provides free newspapers to schools through donations from Herald readers and other sponsors. Please help us conserve funds by ordering only as many copies as you need. We will happily adjust your order at any time.

Delivery Issues
If you are experiencing delivery problems, please contact us right away. It’s very important that we know when newspapers aren’t being received.

Affidavits are Important
Because the newspapers are free, we must keep very careful records. NIE teachers are asked to sign and return an affidavit twice a year stating that they ordered and had access to print and/or Smart Edition newspapers.

Two Subscription Options
The Boston Herald is available in two formats to meet your needs: the print edition and the online Smart Edition. Print newspapers are limited to 40 copies per day, but teachers can order as many Smart Edition copies as they need. Please share your Smart Edition log-on information with other teachers at your school, including librarian/media specialists. Learn more about the Smart Edition here.

Free Curriculum Guides
Download more than 40 curriculum guides from our Curriculum Page. All NIE material is password protected, and is available free of charge with your Smart Edition subscription. To access the Curriculum Download page, just order the Smart Edition and your password information will be emailed to you.
