I can’t resist the chance to steer people in the direction of free and low cost reading material!

I love reading magazines, but I hate the paper clutter and trying to keep track of renewal dates.
For this reason, I can recommend NextIssue, an app that gives access to many magazines at a flat rate.
I can’t claim it’s saving me money, but it makes my life easier and neater. I can keep “clippings” by taking screenshots of recipes and articles, and now they
even have a search feature so you can find articles on various topics in back issues. I
could read digital magazines for free using Zinio through my library, but NextIssue seems so much easier to
use. I’m paying about $10 a month for more magazines than I can possibly read. But I also follow some
free magazines on the Issuu website, which has some rather unusual, niche publications. For
example, I like The Sun By-The-Sea, which is a sporadic newspaper that covers a NJ shore town we like
to visit.

As far as physical books, there is Paperback Swap. For free ebooks and downloadable audio books, it’s
worthwhile checking out the sources compiled by Gizmo’s Freeware at techsupportalert.com. The website says:
“To the best of my knowledge all of the websites listed here offer only content that they are legally
entitled to transfer to you and safe for downloads.”

For librarians, booksellers, and bloggers who review books, there are also two sources I know of for free Advance
Reading Copies, Netgalley and Edelweiss.
