Hello! Please feel free to add any independent or non-commercial journals and magazines (periodicals, print and/or online – not blogs or personal sites please). On subsequent sheets/tabs, there is room for podcasts, blogs, commercial/B2B magazines and aggregator sites (early stages!) Please don't feel obliged, this is a simple resource with no agenda and no promises of exhaustive or definitive listing; there is no institutional behest or promotional purpose. Those here might find it useful as a tool to explore, teach or diversify. Please help to keep this space troll-free, so I can keep it open and public; don't delete the entries of others. Thank you! For any queries or additions please contact holdspacearc@gmail.com
