Guide to Computers and Software Publications
Expand your knowledge of information technology by subscribing to computers and software publications
By Tai G., Writer
Computer and software publications offer a variety of resources and there's a huge selection to choose from, but many are costly. The trick is to get the most information from the fewest resources, thus saving you money and keeping you informed without having to read all day. When deciding which computer journals, books, or magazines to choose, remember the following:
1. Some offer free trial subscriptions so you can better determine whether the publication is for you.
2. When subscribing to publications, find out what period your payment covers. Make sure you receive any back issues within the time period you're paying for. Some publications may just begin subscription with the current issue.
3. Order your computer publication directly from the the website, or you may miss out on subscription perks.
Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done
Subscribe to computer publications and receive subscription benefits
Some publications offer additional benefits with subscriptions, such as discounted prices or a second subscription at 50 percent off. With some publications, you have the opportunity to cancel your subscription without payment if you are not satisfied.
I recommend: Both PC Magazine and Mac World are computer industry trade publications that offer discounts on their subscriptions; they sometimes include free software as a bonus gift.
Take advantage of an online computer and software publication
E-mags and web publications have come a long way. Online publications may offer advantages that include additional newsletters, blogs, and readily available back issues. Internet publications are updated regularly; and if you have any questions, many have online forums for you to access.
I recommend: ComputerUser offers a recommended book section and industry forums as part of its online resources. Byte.com provides back issue options and up-to-date industry news.
Join a club or association for free access to computer publications
If you are an industry professional, you may consider becoming a member of an association. Professional associations are dedicated to staying abreast of the latest industry news and trends. As a member, you'll receive access to free publications, as well as other informational resources.
I recommend: The Information Technology Association of America and the Association of Information Technology Professionals are both computer and software organizations that offer online publications to members. As a member, you get access to additional industry tools and resources.
Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide
- • Check with your local library for publications. Many offer online access to computer and software journals, periodicals and articles for you to view for free.
