EARTH Now Offers Digital Subscriptions

Alexandria, VA — The American Geological Institute is pleased to announce that EARTH magazine, the magazine that explores the science behind the headlines, is now available for PC, Mac and the iPad through Zinio.

Starting with the November 2010 issue, both year-long subscriptions and single copies of the online magazine can be purchased at a savings over the print edition.

“Our readers have been asking for a digital version of EARTH. Now we’ve found a platform in Zinio that combines the best of both print and online technology. It does an excellent job of preserving the art and layout of the magazine, but also provides the convenience of a digital format. In particular, with the new tablets like the iPad, digital magazine technology is now meeting the editorial standards we expect,” says EARTH Editor Christopher Keane.

The Zinio version of EARTH is identical to the printed magazine, but appears on your computer or iPad weeks earlier than the printed edition arrives in your mailbox or on local newsstand shelves. As an added benefit, the digital edition of EARTH is the same price worldwide — $4.99 for single copies or $19.99 for a 12-issue subscription.
