Readers who frequently dig through back issues of The Hard Copy Observer to find some obscure fact or figure will be glad to know there is now a better way to find the information they need. Lyra Research has created a CD that contains the entire library of Observer issues published since the newsletter was started in October 1991. A few keystrokes and a second or two finds any and all references ever printed in the newsletter. The editors here at Lyra use The Observer Archives CD, and we can assure you there is no easier way to search through back issues. The entire library of newsletters has been converted to Adobe Acrobat format, which retains all of the original formatting of the printed version of the newsletter while making it possible to search for a reference anywhere in any issue with a single easy command. |
