The Burgenländische Gemeinschaft (BG) has given permission to the Burgenland Bunch to post an archive of pdf images of BG newsletters older than five years (currently, years 1956-2007). The archive is at webpage www.the-burgenland-bunch.org/BG-NL-Archive/BG_Archiv.htm. A link to it has been placed in the alphabetical lists of links on the BB homepage (see topic: Burgenländische Gemeinschaft Newsletter Archive). Copyright of the content remains with the BG and all rights to the documents and articles are reserved.

This pdf archive shows the 50-year history of the Burgenländische Gemeinschaft in 410 issues over ~5,680 pages using 2.5 GB of data space. In book form, it would be a volume 12 inches thick!
To use the archive, click a YEAR on the left to see thumbnail pictures of the front pages of every edition in that year and then click the thumbnail PICTURE to see that newsletter. Alternatively, directly click a numeric MONTHS (EDITION) identifier to see that newsletter. Please note that these are large pdf files and may download somewhat slowly.
In addition, Google Search has now indexed these pages, making the pdf content searchable. You can limit your search to the BB website by adding “site:the-burgenland-bunch.org” in the Google Search box. For example, if you wished to search for family name Langerberger in the archive, put “Langenberger site:the-burgenland-bunch.org” in the Google search box. This will also bring up any other references to Langenberger on the BB website, but that is probably good!
As was true prior to the addition of this archive, select articles and translations from more recent issues can be reviewed on the BG website menu item ‘Archive’ at
www.burgenlaender.com/ BG/Zeitung/ZeitungE.html.
In addition, our BB archive of older BG issues is also accessible from the BG website, again from the ‘Archive’ page.
