[AISLE-Share] HS/MS magazine subscriptions and philosophy

[Email list for the Association of Illinois School Library Educators]

Very timely question! I have cut my magazine subscriptions nearly in half
over the last 10 years or so, and another large percentage have fallen off
as publishers cease publication. I have about 20 high-interest titles, but
even those magazines are hardly used. The teachers enjoy Rachael Ray and
the like for recipes, and I read The Week. Otherwise, not much.

Not sure when I'll get the courage to stop paying for magazines altogether
