I scanned my magazines and stored them on my computer. It took time to do, but I did a few each day. There are several advantages to this method. I can sort and store an article in several different files such as baby quilts, appliqued, and easy. Another advantage is that pages that I wanted with information from 2 different articles, but were back to back, could be saved individually. I then donated my magazines to the senior center where they were greatly appreciated.
