2015 Newspaper and Magazine Subscriptions
There are currently 193 newspaper and magazine subscriptions for all ages of patrons at Marshall Public Library. Some magazines like Ladies Home Journal, Jet, and Poder are no longer available because they have ceased publication, but the library has added many new high interest subjects such as Cat Fancy, Dog Fancy, Ski, Skiing, Quilting, Eating Well and Vegetarian Times. Current magazine issues are kept in binders and do not check out. We keep the previous year archived and on hand for patrons to view in-house or check out and take home for two-week checkouts.
We also keep print issues of the Idaho State Journal on hand until the microfilm versions have arrived. The microfilm versions of the Pocatello newspaper dates back to 1895 when the Pocatello Tribune was the local paper. A list of all newspapers carried by Marshall Public Library can be found on the website by selecting the Magazines and Newspapers button from the Research Tools drop down menu.
You can also access nearly 2000 full-text magazines and academic journals through the Research Tools drop down menu by clicking on on the Resource Centers and selecting MasterFILE Premier. If you have questions about the library’s print and digital newspapers and magazines, please call the Reference Desk at 232-1263 ext. 106. We are here to help you find the information you need!
