Do you have an existing paid New York Times subscription to their website? If so, you should cancel your subscription before creating a free account through Reynolds Libraries, especially if you are going to use the same email to signup for the free account that you used for your paid account. You can contact Customer Services at the NYT - customercare@nytimes.com, or call 800-591-9233.

Log out of all accounts (such as your email, Google, Apple, MyReynolds, Canvas, Facebook, etc.). Do NOT be actively logged into any online account. Logging out of other accounts will ensure you tie your New York Times account to the personal account you want to use.
