The use of Archive.org  is a work in progress.  All issues are organized by volume number.  Once you click on the volume covering the period you want, you can search within each issue, but not across a volume. We have not yet achieved full text searching but hope to accomplish that by the summer of 2026.
 
To view all issues of the Voice on Archive.org use this url:
 
https://archive.org/search?query=Quaker13801&sort=-addeddate
 
Just click on the volume you want that contains the issue you are looking for.  For example:
 
https://archive.org/details/2024-09-01-voice-vol-046-no-001/2024_09_01_voice_vol_046_no_001/
 
Then select an issue and use the left-hand search (not the search at the top of the page).  Example:
 
https://archive.org/details/2024-09-01-voice-vol-046-no-001/2025_02_01_voice_vol_046_no_006/page/8/mode/2up?q=Appling
 
Bound paper copies of the ''Voice'' are available in the Broadmead Library, in Broadmead Resident Archives storage and in the ''Voice'' office.
