Magazines Produced by Network Libraries

This fact sheet lists magazines produced by network libraries or volunteer groups and distributed by the libraries. It is compiled from information submitted by regional and subregional libraries that is updated annually and distributed only to network libraries for reference purposes. The list is based on a February 2006 survey. It supplements the NLS publication Magazines in Special Media.

The list is arranged alphabetically by title. Each entry gives the magazine code (if known), format if other than cassette, frequency of issue, name of producing or distributing library or libraries, and an indication of the contents. Following the alphabetical listing by titles is the Library Index, a listing of titles by library.

Audiocassette titles are produced on 4-track 15/16 ips by all but the following libraries: Connecticut, Iowa, and Frankfort, Kentucky, which produce titles on 2-track 15/16 ips; North Carolina and Pontiac, Michigan, which produce titles on 2-track 1-7/8 ips.

Asterisks (**) next to a title indicate that the magazine has been accepted for national distribution through the NLS Quality Assurance Program for Network Recorded Magazines (QAP) at the Multistate Center East (MSCE).

If a title that has asterisks is produced by more than one library, consult the Library Index to identify the QAP edition. For QAP titles, network libraries can request 4-track intermasters for in-house duplication of multiple cassette copies (using established tape quota) from their multistate centers.

To arrange for an interlibrary loan of titles shown without the asterisks, contact the producing or distributing library directly.
