DIGITAL JOURNALS

 

Introduction

SALA now has a collection of digital journals which can be accessed at any time through the Slide Scanner computer station in the Architecture Reading Room. These digital journals use the Zinio Reader to open and browse the publications. The Zinio Reader is limited in the sense that it may not allow for printing or screen capturing of the pages of the publication. In order to browse the digital publications, you must be authenticated into the SALA subscription with Zinio. The instructions below take you through the simple login process so that you may browse the digital publications available to you.
