How to Reference The Eagle

The production and publication process forThe Eagle has (unsurprisingly) not been consistent over the course of its 150-year history. However, on the whole, references to the magazine shouldmake use of volume and issue numbers. The table belowshows which issues are contained in each volume.

N.B.As issues were not always numbered we have given each issue a name comprising its year and term of publication (e.g. ‘1865et’ for Easter Term 1865). This issimply to enable us to save the scanned files in a way that is helpful to researchers, and these names should not be used as citations.Where the information is stated on the cover/header of an issue we have recordedthe month of its publicationnext to the name, in the right-hand column (in brackets).

In 1990 The Eagle ceased to be a subscription publication and became ‘the official annual record of the College, […] distributed to all members of the College, resident or not, whose whereabouts are known’ (see ‘Editorial’, Eagle LXXII, no. 298). At this point the volume/issue numbering system was abandonedand each volume was identified simply by its year (with all volumes being published in the Easter term of the year cited on the volume). However, the 2008 (‘150th anniversary issue’) and 2009 editions were erroneously called Volume 110 and Volume 111 respectively. The 2012 edition addressed the error by correctly numbering itself Volume 94, and subsequent issues have been numbered accordingly as follows.
