First you find all of the academic libraries in your area and then search their online catalogues. type in Engineering, no quotes and click "title" button, or better yet, "Journal Title". And then look them up. See what the library has in the way of journals. It will list what they have.

They have each year on a roll and each roll costs I think it is 118 or 128 dollars. I wrote it down on the debris Field listing.
I highly recommend to wait until I have catalogued each year, before making a purchase, because the Titanic articles are not all bunched together but are spread out over a series of months.
They were in print until 1994. It may be possible to get ship abstracts from their database. I could contact Gillard Welch assicates, Chester Ct. High Street, Knowle, Solihull, West Midlands, B93OlLL England, $110.00 was listed with their address. I do not know why?
The bound ones are yeallow before 1911 and Green therafter. The volume numbers on the spine of the books does not coorespond with the volume numbers of the invididual issues, that is why the microfilm volume numbers are not the same as the books.
Also The Engineer which is a green cover, looks exactly like Engineering, they were published by the same people at the same time, the only way to tell the difference is to look at the front cover, it says The Engineer in gold letters.
I have gone on the net and located a few of these volume near members
Here is a short list of who has it:
Michigan State University, remote storage, ask at desk
Ohio State U, see their online catalogue
Penn State has both Engineering and the Engineer in the Hammond Building
Purdue U 1916, 1917 Call no. 620.5En32, they have 9it up to 1901 and after 1917. the 1916,17 issues are unbound, and probably have ads in them. bound issues do not have ads.
TRAN, unbound all of them!
U of Illinoise, 1966 onwards
McMaster University in microfilm and hard cover, in the Morris Thode Library
U of Iowa has it in storage Main stroage (Engr) 234 volumes, but does not say which ones.
U of Michigan Media Union Libary, no info on which ones they have.
U of Minnesota in Andersen MN
Uof Wisconsin, madison, Wendt Library journals, first floor, non-circulating,
Arizona state U lists it but their database is off limits to outsiders.

Boston University 1968-1994
Carnegie Melon 1866-1975 on Microfilms Engineering & Science
U of California has it on their database, at UCDavis, but I didn;t look further. All of their schools are on one database, this is common for shcools to united like that.
It can also be found in City Libraries
Sheffield Library Sheffield England.
To find colleges, most search engines have it under education and you can narrow the field by typing in the city you livve in. And check them all, check city libraries, it is an obscure thing, so it may be in a minor library, just gathering dust.

ALL of these are non-circulating
