<div dir="auto"><div dir="auto"></div>We're also a small, rural school; we serve grades 6-12. We continue to offer magazines because they offer one more opportunity for students and staff to read and become engaged. The magazines arent browsed a lot, but they do get attention. We have many books that receive the same limited attention<div dir="auto"> However this year I only ordered a couple of titles, one which a teacher requested for her class (Wired) and a couple of other very popular titles. We use Discount Magazine Service, and they dont offer online subscriptions. Next year, if these pandemic protocols continue, I'll switch to online mags. Frankly, I just didnt deal with the magazine situation this summer when writing P.O.s like I should have. </div><div dir="auto">;) Kathy<br><div class="gmail_quote" dir="auto"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Sep 8, 2020, 4:09 PM Swegle, Laurie via AISLE <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<p class="MsoNormal">I agree with Amy's question: what is the purpose of the collection? I'm in a small, rural high school and we were eventually not getting much readership of magazines. Students indicated that they wanted things they could read on their
Chromebooks or phones. So we rolled that money into new books. We don't subscribe to any phsical magazines anymore. But I do make sure to highlight how students can read issues of Sports Illustrated and other popular magazines in our EBSCO subscription.

<p class="MsoNormal">My question to you would be, what do you see as the purpose of your magazine collection? I don't get much usage from mine, but I do get some browsers looking through Game Informer, things like Entertainment Weekly/People, or Rolling Stone.
I do have one teacher who gives extra credit for reading in a French language magazine, so we make sure always to renew that.
