YTOC now has most of the Back Issues of Yoga Journal from 1990-2001!

We can share back issues with you. For example, maybe you want an in-depth analysis of an asana or a sytle of yoga you are researching. We can help you locate that issue. You can use this service just as you use the library for renting out video and audio tapes.
