+* Progressbar (install using ```pip install progressbar```)
+
+**NOTE:** If errors occur during progressbar installation, download .whl file for progressbar from Christoph Gohlke's Repository of Windows Binaries for Python at http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/
+Install using ```pip install <PATH-TO-FILE>```
+
+# Usage
+* Register yourself at https://newsapi.org/register and generate your API-key
+* Run setup_system.py from command line using ```python setup_system.py``` and follow the instructions. This needs to be done once during setup.
