Newsletter Index
Here is a sheet showing the contents of all BCD Newsletter articles Issues 01 to 159.
Click on the link above to download the file and use its search function to find all the newsletter articles of interest to you.
-
- There are almost 2,500 entries in the index so, rather than scrolling all the way through the list to find your particular interest, after downloading and opening the file, you can simply type the subject of your interest into the search window at the very top right and hit ‘Enter’.
- This will take you straight to the first mention of your subject in the index with the appropriate magazine Issue and page numbers on the right hand side. You can then either scroll up or down to see related entries, or hit the ‘Enter’ key again, with each hit taking you to the next occurrence of your search word(s).
- To start a new search, you can just enter a new search term into the search window which will start searching from the row you are currently on, or scroll back to the top of the file before to search from the top.
If you prefer to search only within the KEYWORDS column, simply click on the A at the top of that column and then search as above. Similarly, to search only within the ARTICLE column, click on the B at the top before you search and for AUTHOR only, click on the C before you search.
If you need any help using the index, spot any errors or have any suggestions for its improvement, please let us know using the form on the Contact Us page.
