Electronic Gaming Monthly, Volume 7, Number 8, Issue 61, August 1994
Scope and Contents
The library's physical collection of Electronic Gaming Monthly includes all main issues of the magazine, published from 1989–2009, as well as the vast majority of the magazine's special issues and supplements.
The final issue of the original run of EGM, Issue 237, was never published in print; instead, the collection includes the February 2009 issue of EGM Brasil, which was published the same month.
The library's digital collection currently includes most supplements included with EGM, with the exceptions of inserts for subscribers (such as Quartermann's Q-Letter), Master Profile pages, and the Sega Force and TurboPlay magazine series (which will be digitized and cataloged separately). Unless noted, all issues on the library shelves come with subscriber inserts.

Historical Note
This issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly includes an early story on the Sony PlayStation, with an image caption claiming that "The PlayStation can produce mind-boggling effects" (p.56). This image and caption have become an internet meme, although the source article is rarely cited.
