Beginning the week of March 19, we will introduce charges for digital subscriptions for those of you who do not subscribe to our print edition.
Starting March 19, print subscribers can go to lakecowichangazette.com to sign up for digital access. Readers can subscribe for $38 a year to an all access package which includes the print edition (to local mailing addresses only— still $54 for print editions to mail within BC) and the premium online content. Out of area readers can subscribe for the electronic edition only, for $38 per year. With this step, the Lake Cowichan Gazette joins scores of paid circulation community newspapers which are recognizing the value of their online content. Valuing online content recognizes the efforts of our editorial staff. What we value in print, we also value online.
