Prologue Magazine Now Available on Apple iPad

WASHINGTON, April 8 -- Prologue Magazine, the official quarterly publication of the National Archives, extended its reach to readers this week by adding Apple iPad to the number of ways readers can view or subscribe to it electronically.

Prologue, which is now in its 42nd year of publication, is available on iPad through one of its publishing partners, Zinio. The magazine, still available in print format, offers historical stories from the holdings of the Archives as well as articles about Archives programs and initiatives.

Electronically, Prologue is also available for e-readers and for download at Scribd.com and the Barnes and Noble online bookstore (bn.com).

Prologue is still available in print. To order a subscription, visit the National Archives' eStore (estore.archives.gov.com).

Prologue articles draw on the rich nationwide holdings of the National Archives, which includes nearly 10 billion pieces of paper, more than 15 million photographs, and thousands of maps, drawings, and artifacts, in addition to a fast-growing volume of electronic records.
