Hi - We get lots of 'unsolicited' journals - I give ours to my librarian to look at just in case, but we usually end up pitching them 'cause scholarly journals don't tend to send out free ones!

I think- just like at home- when you subscribe to anything, your preferences list goes out to lots of folks....

Hi everyone,

 

I was wondering what you do when you receive a random magazine in the mail. We recently received a copy of Print magazine, a graphic design publication, that we don’t subscribe to. I have no clue where it came from.

 

Do you typically hold on to these types of things, pass them on to interested parties, or toss them?

 

Thanks so much!

Jaime Hammond
