Gazette becomes a fully digital magazine

Gazette becomes a fully digital magazine

Available anytime, on any device, the Digital Bar Gazette will make it easier than ever to access legal news and expert analysis, including insights from the likes of Joshua Rozenberg, Rachel Rothwell and Jonathan Goldsmith.

The final version of the print magazine will be published on December 13. The digital magazine will continue from January 2022 and will be delivered straight to your inbox every Friday.

This decision reflects the changing ways in which people interact with the Gazette.

A significant number of people now rely on our website, and the pandemic has accelerated the trend towards fully online publications.

We are committed to bringing value to members. Last year the Law Society reduced the amount we received through the practice certificate fee by a total of £3 million.

In the face of continued uncertainty, we will maintain our cost share at the same level for the coming year. We also proactively review all activities to ensure that we are using member funds as efficiently as possible.

We also know that lawyers are increasingly concerned about sustainability and climate issues.

Halting the printing and distribution of 68,069 copies of the magazine each week will not only save funds; it will also reduce our carbon footprint and have a positive environmental impact.

What should you do?

If you already receive the Gazette Daily update emails, you don’t have to do anything. The digital magazine will be included in your daily email, with a new issue every Friday.
