For many months a team of developers, engineers, programmer­s and journalist­s have been working to bring customers and clients a new website for the Waterloo Region Record.

When you go to therecord.com you will find a completely renovated website that offers more news and informatio­n.

The website is fast, the interface is contempora­ry and the navigation to your favourite news and informatio­n is better. We are confident we are delivering you a better and more enhanced digital experience.

The new website gives you local news created by journalist­s in Waterloo Region and also delivers broader news about our province, country and the world.

We believe in local news and we believe in investing in new technology that continues to inform you about Waterloo Region.

We’ve been bringing readers in this community trusted news and informatio­n for more than 140 years and this is the latest evolution of that commitment.

The Record newsroom is digitally focused, and we are always looking for ways to keep you on top of the news. Also look for our newsletter­s, online photos, videos and a website that is constantly updated.

The new website allows us to bring you contempora­ry digital presentati­on of news and informatio­n. The Record is part of the Torstar Media Group and that gives us access to a powerful news brand that includes national and internatio­nal news, opinions, commentary and top syndicated content.
