A LITTLE HELP GETTING STARTED

Keep your research moving.

Start reading, find your saved articles, or get help adding missing text.

Join the workspace

Ask your administrator for an invitation code, then sign in with Google or email and password. Email registration requires verification. Once you have joined, you do not need the invitation again. Set your display name and reading interests; you can change them later in Settings.

Start with articles already here

Discover’s shared pool refreshes every 30 minutes and is presented around your interests and followed sources. Text available articles can be read here; Headline only means the text has not been retained. Choose Text available in Filters when you only want articles you can read immediately.

Archive holds the team’s collected reporting and research. It starts with Text available; switch to Full catalog for more historical headlines. My Library starts with Saved; Reading history separately keeps the articles you opened.

Follow a question further

Use the companion beside an article to unpack its ideas. Move to Research to compare several articles, bring in notes or trace a question through history. Check the cited text and its coverage. Your notes and conversations stay personal.

When article text is missing

Members with capture access can install Article Capture . Open the publisher article you can access, let the text load, and choose Capture & save to library. A successful save returns you to BIT to read. For contributors, existing shared text opens as-is; new captures stay in their own library until an administrator approves sharing.

If a save is interrupted by sign-in, finish signing in and return to the capture tab. Use Retry save when offered, or open the extension in that same tab and choose Options & help → Resume pending capture. If the transfer has expired, capture the original article again.

Missing text or images?

Check that the original is accessible and scroll to load images before capturing. Text available means text was saved, not that every part of the original is present. If an existing shared copy needs correction, give your administrator the article link and a description of what is missing.
