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

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

I cut mine to ones the kids look at.... My most popular periodical is the
Illinois Auto RV, which I pick up for free at the gas station.   I also
have a membership to Game stop so I get Game Informer.   But the other ones
I have are Seventeen, Time, and Health/Fitness ones.
