Below, you will find most of the issues of the Village that have been published since May 1997.

* PDF conversion note: PDFs marked with an asterisk are best-effort, high-resolution master conversions of the original WordPerfect documents. The text is the same as in the surviving source, but the original formatting and page layout have not been reproduced 100% exactly. These pages will be updated by future AI models when they are able to perform an exact conversion. Issues marked as incomplete or recovered fragments contain only the material that survives in the original files; missing original content has not been recreated. The five previously verified PDFs remain unmarked. The original WordPerfect ZIP archives are provided after each PDF link.

The files below are in WordPerfect 9 format. While most computers have WordPerfect installed, some people who wish to view these issues can possibly use Word to read the text portion of the articles. Though Microsoft Word is now largely compatible with WordPerfect, some older versions of Word may experience trouble loading the documents, and even then display incorrect data. If you still wish to download the files and do not have WordPerfect or Word installed, then we suggest you download the Microsoft Word Viewer, which you can download for free at microsoft.com.

If you have not downloaded issues of the Village previously, download the Papyrus font before continuing to ensure the correct display of titles.

NOTE: Due to an incident in January 1998, some content in the May and June 1997 issues has been lost. Unfortunately, these files have proven to be unrecoverable. In addition, a scrambled ZIP file has made impossible to unzipping the file containing the April 1998 issue, and that issue has been lost.
