On Line Index for Model Engineer, EIM and MEW

[shedman]

Hi folks, I thought I would share with you a new online resource that offers the Indexes for Model Engineer, Model Engineers Workshop and Engineering In Miniature. 
The data has been compiled from several sources most notably from the work  Bill Phillips and Chris Orchard have carried out.

The searchable indexes are hosted on the Ipswich Model Engineering Club's website

www.imes.org.uk/me_index/index.php

The ME index covers all issues from 1898 to 2023 Issue 4718 and holds 186,000 records
MEW to 2016 Issue 237
EIM to 2016

The indexes have a very powerful search capability and are fast to use. For example, to search all 180 thousand-plus records in the Model Engineer takes less than a couple of seconds. Both simple and complex searches can be created, for the latter you use the filter builder with 16 different criteria. 


If you are interested give it a try and I would welcome your feedback.

ps The raw data has been compiled by Bill Phillips and Chris Orchard and can be found here www.ropewalkview.uk/me_index.html
There is another site that also holds the ME Index but is no longer maintained and is somewhat out of date. www.itech.net.au/modelengineer/eim_magazine.php

A quick update, the index to Model Engineer Workshop has been updated and covers up to issue 340 June 2024.

I think we owe them a vote of thanks

I agree, the folks who put the data together have done a wonderful job.

In the next few days, the Model Engineer index will be updated to May 2024 and the Model Engineer Workshop is now up to date. We have also added a SSL certificate to the site so you should no longer see the annoying warnings from your browser.

Engineering in Miniature
Engineering in Miniature Index

Hi Folks I have now updated the Engineering in Miniature indexes to include volumes 40, 41, and the last volume 43.

The index is now just missing volume 42 as the copy at my local model club has gone walkabout. If anyone has a copy of the index which is usually in the June or July edition and they could scan to a PDF I could then get the database updated and the index would be complete.
