After being the Editor for last 10 years in two clubs, I don't think everyone read the newsletter. I have request from members to print something that was printed in the previous month newsletter.I have had similar experience and have been doing email Newsletters for 5 years. Whether the member reads them is always a question but hard quantify. I then did a short stint of web page only but that was obviously not enough. Have you read the LSF Newsletter lately? I have even suggested to members to make the web site their home page but that did not seem to help.
Now I email and do the web page. I am still not sure it is being read. Newsletters have important information but our lives are busy. A mailed Newsletter does get opened and read I do believe.
I have asked members did you read the newsletter and some even months after finally told me they did not have the software to read the download or didn't know how to do it.
Mailing costs stamps, ink, time, and that is hard to give up easily.
No matter whicj delivery method you use, there will be people who won't read part or the whole thing.
