The Navigator's Newsletter is a quarterly publication through which the foundation keeps it's members up to date on Foundation activities.

They were issued quarterly from 1983 to 2008. New editions will begin in the near future.

Online Supplement
In order to share related materials with our members that may go beyond the scope, format, or available space of our printed newsletter, the Foundation has newly implemented an online supplement to the printed newsletter. When new articles appear in the online supplement, they will be outlined and referenced in the associated printed edition. In forthcoming pdf issues, this will serve as essentially a long footnote section.
