Rotary International bylaws require all club members to subscribe to The Rotarian or one of the Rotary Regional magazines. There are 32 magazines from Africa, The Americas, Asia, Australia and Europe and are in 23 languages. All of these magazines provide valuable information to 1.2 million Rotarians. Rotary leaders, district governors, and club presidents are encouraged to support magazine editors in their country or region by submitting story ideas, promoting readership, encouraging timely subscription payments, and assisting with other communication efforts. These magazines showcase what is happening in the world of Rotary. Through these magazines, we get to know our truly inspiring world Rotary leaders and fellow Rotarians, as well as experience a sense of pride to belong to this unique world body. The magazines have a wealth of information and promotional material. These publications are tools that enthuse Rotarians to do innovative projects and share with Rotary friends. The Rotarian, Rotary’s English language flagship publication, can be described as a window to the vast world of Rotary. It is Rotary’s official magazine. Reading the magazine is an ideal way for new members, and old, to keep up to date on all the events, programs and work Rotarians are accomplishing around the world. An informed Rotarian is a better Rotarian. If we are to promote Rotary to others, then we need to be well informed and The Rotarian helps with that. Every Rotarian is responsible for public relations. Don’t forget; when you have finished reading The Rotarian, share it with the community. This is a great way to promote what Rotary is doing around the world. The new digital edition of The Rotarian gives you the same print content you have enjoyed for years. You may subscribe to the digital version at rotary.org. Apps are also available for IPhone, IPad, IPod Touch and the Samsung Galaxy. You may choose to continue to receive The Rotarian in print as well as digital, or choose only the digital version. Whatever way you receive the magazine, keep in mind this is your monthly lesson in Rotary, updates on world Rotary events and news stories……......your window to the world of Rotary. |
