Help us find the missing issues of Linux Format (2000)
An appeal to Linux User Groups, magazine collectors and the Linux community worldwide
We are working on a bibliographic project dedicated to preserving the history of Linux publications, with particular attention to the early issues of Linux Format magazine.
Our first issue, Linux Format, May 2000 (Issue 001), has been documented and published in the SaM bibliographic catalogue:
However, we have not yet been able to locate a digital copy of Issue 002 or some of the subsequent issues published in 2000.
We would be grateful for help from the international Linux community!
Perhaps you are a long-time reader of Linux Format, a magazine collector, a member of a Linux User Group (LUG), or know someone who has kept a collection of the magazine.
We are particularly interested in:
- Digital copies (PDF) of Linux Format issues from 2000, especially Issue 002.
- Information about libraries, archives or private collections holding these issues.
- Photographs or scans of contents pages, covers and bibliographic details.
- Contacts of collectors who might be willing to help us identify or access missing issues.
Even a small piece of information could help us make progress.
Our aim is to document the contents of these early publications and preserve their bibliographic record for future readers and researchers.
We would be delighted to hear from anyone who can offer assistance or point us in the right direction.
Thank you for helping preserve the history of Linux and its community!
