One of the new magazines most requested by our Patrons in the past is Guideposts. Since 1945, this nonsectarian inspirational magazine has offered heartwarming true stories of hope, daily devotionals, unforgettable family moments and quotes from today’s positive thinkers. Guideposts is a bimonthly magazine.
Baseball season is here, and along with it we are now offering Baseball Digest. Baseball Digest will keep you up to date with recent baseball action and also includes articles on the rich history of the sport.
Consumer Reports: On Health is new, too. Its expert reviews and ratings for health, fitness and food products are invaluable. It also has articles on the latest information available about drugs, hospital safety and more. (LAMP already offers Consumer Reports with its tried-and-true reviews and ratings for a wide variety of consumer products.) Another health-related offering is Prevention Magazine, described by its publisher as “the ultimate live-better handbook.” This healthy-lifestyle magazine features articles about health conditions, wellness, food and nutrition, weight loss, fitness and beauty.
