Google Magazines – Titles

Google Books - Magazines

Google announced yesterday that they’re now adding magazines to Google Books. A bit of digging has yielded the titles below. Easy methods I’ve used — One is to simply go to Google Books, and look at the Magazines featured in the top row; to see more do screen refresh. Another way is to go to Google Books Advanced search, limit to Content: Magazines, and search for subjects e.g. baseball, macintosh, influenza↑, disease. If you find other titles, feel free to put them in the Comments.

Please note: the dates given for titles is not necessarily inclusive! Some are quite spotty.

Other peoples’ lists of titles in Google Magazines: Jeanne Kramer-Smyth (listed by subject categories) ; Thomas Gruber (comments in German)

  3. Aha. I see you have edited this to add sixteen titles since I linked to this admirable entry months ago.

    I returned here after finding Billboard. The earliest issue I see is Jan. 3, 1942, and the latest is Nov. 29, 2008, so you may want to adjust your list.

    Wish Boys’ Life stretched back to the era when I was a Scout. But that was a very long time ago…

    I wonder what in Google’s policy does not allow them to share a list of their periodicals, as most commercial databases do.
