Overview

• Longtime reader Christian Weingran donated a gapless collection of print taz editions to the Internationales Zeitungsmuseum Aachen.
• The museum now holds 13,133 issues—nearly one tonne—stored across roughly 60 meters of shelving in archival boxes.
• Cataloguing of the taz run is finished, and scanning is in progress with priority given to more fragile 19th‑century newspapers.
• Special exhibitions are temporarily paused because the municipal registry is using the museum’s exhibition space as a mourning room.
• From October 17, the taz ends weekday print while the weekend edition continues, a change that could reduce future physical donations.
