Friends of the Squirrel Hill Library -- Newsletters

Award from the Pa Citizens for Better Libraries

The Friends of the Squirrel Hill Library publish a newsletter at the beginning of each calendar quarter: January, April, July, and October.
Members with email addresses on file are notified when the newsletter is posted online.
Printed copies are mailed to other paid-up members, and some copies are available at the library.

What does PDF mean?

NOTE: many people report that the .pdf version
is easier to read than the Word version.
If you want to make any changes or notes, though,
you cannot do it in the .pdf version unless you
purchase the complete .pdf software from Adobe.
Their free software is "read-only".

Newsletter for January, 2012

You can read the current newsletter or print a copy
from a Word file or a .pdf file.

For old issues, see the bottom of this page.

The downloads of newsletters are sometimes very slow, probably because there are so many colored pictures.
You can access January's document one page at a time:

	Microsoft Word software is installed on most new PC's. Slowest to download. Word files (.doc) can be edited, copied, printed, sent with emails, or just read and saved. The newsletter will have a white background when printed from Word, unless you use colored paper.	Software to read .pdf files can be downloaded for free; click on the yellow box above to learn more. You can do everything with a .pdf file that you can do with a .doc (see left) except edit the content of the file. The .pdf files here will download much faster than Word, and seem easier to read.	Pictures of the pages (.jpg files) will be fastest to see here. The text can not be manipulated (edited) and you need software like Paint or Photoshop to make any changes to the picture. The pictures here include the background color ("buff" or "ivory") of the newspaper pages so printing them will use up a lot more ink than printing Word or PDF files.

You may copy any of these files to your own computer if you wish.
Just do a "save" of the file that appears when you click on a link.
For the Word file, you will find "save" as one of the commands in the "File" list (in the upper left corner of the window);
for the .pdf file, click on the icon of a floppy disk.
After saving the file, do not close Word or .pdf before you use your browser's "back" button to return here.
For instructions on saving .jpg files see the scrollable version of the newsletter.
