[nabs] accessible magazines

[Yvonne]

You can get it from BARD I think, I used to get it on cassette, and it was
1, 4 sided tape. It has lots of differant topics, pretty much something for
everyone.

So how much is reader's digest and how many cassettes is it? I have no idea 
how big reader's digest is.
I think it has articles from multiple articles on a wide variety of current 
topics.
What did you like about the magazine?

Ashely, aph does have readers digest; it is good. I haven't gotten in
a while because of time constraints on reading but I use to enjoy it.
For the other magazines you just have to contact your library and
request them. I believe they should also have newsweek. Generally the
articles are indexed and one reader does the entire magazine. Also the
bard download service does have magazines too. Hope this helps, Ben.
