Newfoundland culture now on Kindle


For all you fans of both technology and intangible cultural heritage, the Heritage Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador's monthly ICH Update newsletter is now available free for Kindle e-books, through archive.org.

Kindle is a thin, lightweight, electronic reading device created by the net's largest bookseller, Amazon.com. You can already download literally hundreds of thousands of Kindle-friendly books, as well as many top newspapers, magazines, and even blogs. The Kindle screen simulates paper, allowing it to be read in bright sunlight.

Kindle uses files with the .mobi extension, and the reader also features a built-in PDF reader. Luckily for you, dear reader, all back issues of the ICH Update are now available in both formats. You are welcome!

You can download all our newsletters not only in .pdf and .mobi, but also in .epub format. The .mobi and .epub translations are in Beta format, so if you get some bugs in the text or layout, don't be surprised.

You can find back issues of all our ICH Update newsletters at:
