The Chronicle of Philanthropy is the nonprofit world’s newspaper of record. Issued biweekly, it includes articles on trends in philanthropy. It also reports on recent grants by foundations and companies, which include why the grant was made. Skimming this listing is a great way to pick up some prospects for further research. Some of its content is available online (philanthropy.com), but some is reserved for subscribers to the paper edition.

The NonProfit Times offers articles for nonprofits beyond fundraising to include management issues; it’s free if you’re a full-time nonprofit executive. It also offers some of its content free online (nptimes.com).
