I think this is very sad, but I understand the reasoning behind its ending.
I really enjoyed the Ziegler and will miss it. I always got it in Braille
until it went to e-mail. There were articles in it you really didn't see
anywhere else and I always liked the Reader's Forum.

July 25, 2014
As you are aware the Matilda Ziegler Magazine for the Blind has been
suspended for the past several months pending a review by the Board of
Directors of The E. Matilda Ziegler Foundation for the Blind. Considerable
time was spent evaluating its substance, breadth of distribution, and
readers' responses. With heavy heart the directors voted to discontinue the
weekly magazine and use the Foundation's resources solely for scientific
research through grants to highly innovative medical researchers who are
making important advances in vision research.
We've come a long way from when my great grandmother, Electa Matilda
Ziegler, founded the magazine in 1907 with the goal of producing reading
material for the blind "as much as possible like that published for the
seeing." Raised type books of the era were expensive, and the freely
circulated magazine helped to fill an information void.
Today's blind and those with visual impairment can obtain books and
magazines in Braille, on cassette, and in DVD or CD format from the National
Library Service and the American Foundation for the Blind. Radio,
television, internet, and commercially produced audio books have all become
accessible, and provide resources that could not have been imagined in 1907.
Your emails and letters show that we've touched the lives of thousands of
blind and vision impaired people. The Matilda Ziegler Magazine for the Blind
was once described by Helen Keller as a "godsend," and Mark Twain described
it as "one of the noblest benefactions of his lifetime." We hope to realize
a medical breakthrough that will be worthy of the same praise.
On behalf of the E. Matilda Ziegler Foundation Board I sincerely thank you
for your loyal readership over our many years.
Cynthia Ziegler Brighton
President

Ah, what a shame. I really enjoyed reading that mamgazine as well.
