For example, only the insignia they are entitled to will be displayed for purchase, and all pricing will reflect the 20% member discount. Members of Orders [meaning [[Sub-Groups]]] will have access to restricted areas for those groups, while non-members will instead be directed to information pages. With sufficient volunteer support, we could even offer our web site in other languages. Most importantly, it will be easier for staff to update and maintain, saving valuable time. We hope to see this deployed by the end of the month; watch for it.
Computers are also enabling projects that would otherwise be unreasonably costly or burdensome. A volunteer program already well under way involves [[Digitization|keyboarding]] all of our hundreds of back issues(later enhanced by OCR pre-processing). This is necessary because we lack originals for most, some are damaged, many are poor photocopies, and reprinting is required if we are to make them available. The results, as some of you have seen, are reprinted magazines on better stock, that are more legible, and in many cases, are now in color, which is of particular value for heraldry.
Once digitized, it is a simple matter to pull out all the articles, corrections, and letters on a given topic into a “Reprint”. We can also produce [[Large Print|large print editions]] and electronic editions for members overseas who cannot easily receive mail.
