The year is more than school events.

You understand how national and world events affect the students at your school. If your staff has decided to produce its own current events coverage instead of using Walsworth’s Year in Review, ceBuzz or Retrospective news-summary packages, we want to help. See the information below about commercial photo agencies that provide images of major news events.

MCT Campus
With the purchase of Knight Ridder by The McClatchy Co., KRT Campus is now MCT Campus. The MCT Campus for Yearbooks Web site still offers a package for $325 that gives you unlimited access to their archive of 300,000 images of the top stories of the year. To see the service and sign up, go to mctcampus.com/yearbooks/. For more information, contact MCT Campus at 800-245-6536, ext. 6698, or campus@krtinfo.com.
