Spectator and LRB trial digital format

The Spectator is offering a searchable digital edition as part of a new service from online venture Exact Editions.

Trial issues of the London Review of Books, The Scientist and the Literary Review are also available on Exact Editions' website.
The trial issues will be free but those wanting to access the service in future will have to subscribe via the website.
The pages of the digital magazines look exactly like the print edition, and users can browse them in much the same way or search by key words and phrases.
The site also aims to drive magazine subscriptions and users can set up personal accounts that enable them to access digital versions of back issues of the Spectator and the Literary Review going back to last summer.
"The powerful searching of special interest content brings out the enormous value in the back issues of magazines once they have been uploaded to the web," said Daryl Rayner, managing director of Exact Editions.
She stressed that digital magazines were an extension of the print product, rather than an alternative, and would help to promote the magazines more widely.
She added: "The digital magazine may be more useful to the potential subscriber in Japan or the US, to the mobile subscriber, the web-generation subscriber, or simply to the core subscriber who wants to have the best possible access to a consumer magazine archive."
