Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Old coho mags

[Raines Cohen (rc3-coho-L]

Fred, Cohousing journal/magazine back issues aren't in a unified digital
archive anywhere that I know of, but there have been efforts at scanning
over the years (Joani was part of some of these), and some articles showed
up as reprints on earlier versions of the cohousing.org website (try
searching via The Internet Archive) and the e-zine. Of course, many are no
longer relevant but there are some historical insights and still-current
topics discussed.

Some articles also made it into "Reinventing Community: Tales from the
Walkways of Cohousing" (Fulcrum Pres, 2005) by Dave Wann of Harmony
Cohousing in Golden, Colorado, which you can learn more about at Dave's
site:

Sharon, I'm pretty sure you've got some print issues of cohousing magazine
in your community's library. Or Ann or Steve P might have some.

I'm sorry to report that our Berkeley (CA) Cohousing neighbor Don
Lindemann, creator of the Cohousing Journal, passed away in 2010 of
Waldenstrom Syndrome, at 58; thanks to community support, he was able to
die at home, and maintain mobility after losing his sight as the disease
progressed.

Don had handed off the magazine a decade earlier; when I first joined the
Coho/US (then The Cohousing Network) board in late 1999, I was involved in
transferring the mailing list, but there were not organized digital
archives at that time, and later editors and layout teams didn't make
putting finished articles online a priority (remember, the internet was
much less well-established then)

PS in a web search for references to Don, this 1993 Baltimore newspaper
article popped up:"Co-housing unlikely to catch on across country"
