Message: <blockquote data-quote="NickWallingford" data-source="post: 13739" data-attributes="member: 44">Thanks for the offer, but I'm (maybe) getting close to the point where I would want to be giving away multiple boxes of my own "collection".  My whole plan was to digitise, especially, the items I've collected that I feared may not be available otherwise.  And I've done the bulk of that as it relates to the NZ beekeeping magazines.  I still have some early ones that I need to improve the quality on, and still some missing issues of Billy Bray's magazine, and that of Percy Hillary (both in the 1930s.)   And I did extend my reach back into Isaac Hopkin's sets of magazines from the 1880's - in that case, just providing copies of work done by others.And for a lot of it, I've now started using the Internet Archive.  It gives a *great* chance to search  Try this:[URL unfurl="true"]https://archive.org/details/nz-beekeeping[/URL]Just below the Search bar, part of the way down the screen, change it to "Search text contents".  Then put in something to search for.  Best to use a single word or two, especially if they are relatively rare.You can change the view (three buttons on the right side) and easily change the Sort order (to the left on that same line).That will search all the stuff I have on the Internet Archives.  There are still quite a few things I have that aren't there, but can still be found at:[URL unfurl="true"]https://beekeeping.nz/NZBDA[/URL]Again, thanks for the offer.  I really hope you can find someone willing to take your older magazines, and I hope they'll all remain available to NZ beekeepers into the future...</blockquote>
