Spotlight on Magazines

Did you know the library offers a great collection of teen magazines? We subscribe to J-14, Teen Vogue, Seventeen, Dirt Rider, Game Informer, and more!

You can also download periodicals (like Seventeen and Teen Vogue!) from our digital catalog. Find the information here. Magazines come in Nook format, so you will need a Nook Reading app or a Nook tablet to access them. Questions? Ask us at the Reference desk!
