Magazines

Popular magazines are often characterized by their glossy pages, color photos, and extensive advertising. The library subscribes to many magazines and databases that track articles in magazines.

Facsimile formats allow you to browse and read popular magazines as they were printed, page by page, with full images and advertisements, not just the text of articles available in many databases
