![]() 2947 forum posts 468 photos | Hopefully in the right thread; I seem to remember some time ago that MEW digital issues were available for sale on CD / DVD disc, issue 1... ? for about £14-15, is this facility still available & where would I get hold of an up to date one? TIA. George. |

![]() 5092 forum posts 736 photos | Unless something gets done 50 to 100 years of ME from 1898, with about what, 3000 years of human effort within its pages, will be lost in the next 50 years to the ME community. As old magazines on tatty paper disintegrate and become unusable only a few places will still have access to that unique historical record of ideas and skills I presume that eventually google books will put it up, as it has with other publications |

Once I get full access I hope that the online archive is suitably indexed so I can search for items of interest John |

If I stop subscribing at some time in the future can I still access the copies I've subscribed to? I hope that the online archive is suitably indexed so I can search for items of interest
