Due to the great demand for the Fall/Winter 2010 issue of Nebraska History, we have posted the entire issue on our website.
If you’d rather read the articles on paper, you have two options. One is to contact our Landmark Stores before the remaining printed copies sell out (there are still a small number left as of this writing). The other is to print them yourself—about 100 pages if you print them all. The files are formatted for standard-sized printer paper, and you have our permission to print them for personal or classroom use (see this page for other permissions to re-use History Nebraska materials).
Of course, those of you who are History Nebraska members already received this issue in your mailbox when it came out.
