Acquire Media Announces NewsBank Distribution Agreement

ROSELAND, N.J., June 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Acquire Media, which delivers digital news and information as part of its offering of subscription news services, is pleased to announce a distribution deal that offers news content from NewsBank, inc.  The content is available across the entire suite of Acquire Media products including all NewsEdge services. 

NewsBank has been a premier information provider for academia, public and government libraries, and professionals for more than 43 years. NewsBank currently offers more than 1,800 titles through Acquire Media as part of its collection, with a focus on hyperlocal news coverage in the United States. This coverage will provide subscribers to Acquire Media and NewsEdge services with information that allows them to gain a more holistic perspective of the news that matters most to their businesses.

"Providing NewsBank content to Acquire Media's subscribers enables professionals to understand not only the big picture, but also a more nuanced, local perspective.  That's due to NewsBank's tremendous network of local newspapers throughout the United States," states Brad Scher, CEO of Acquire Media. "This comprehensive local news coverage and perspective is often overlooked by major news outlets and distribution services.  However, a local news perspective can make a big difference for our clients.  For example, knowing the conditions of a local market can help a business locate the perfect site for expansion; or help win a big deal or increase their ability to stave off competitors in a highly contentious business market."

"We are extremely pleased to be working with Acquire Media toward the common goal of helping professionals get the information they need to grow their businesses," says Chuck Palsho, NewsBank Chief Content Officer. "News that's relevant in the business world happens everywhere, from large cities to small towns across the U.S., and that's one of the reasons we strive to include such diversity in our collections. NewsBank is looking forward to bringing the strength of our content in the aggregate to Acquire Media subscribers so that they can put it to work for them."
