I honestly don't know how up to date their magazines are, but I bet it'd be there. PLUS they also have e-book and digital downloads to lend. I wonder if there's a way to "borrow" a digital copy for an hour or so from the library. If not SOMEONE GET ON THIS! Has anyone here explored the library’s periodicals?

It's all organized nicely, you get all the cartoons, you can clip and save articles...it's my favorite thing to use my kindle for.

Spending money on sending writers to the North Pole, however: A-OK in my book.
