The IAPSOP is a US-based private organization focused on the digital preservation of Spiritualist and occult periodicals published between the Congress of Vienna and the start of the Second World War.

We have a standing want list and will respond promptly to inquiries and offers from sellers.
We accept contributions of material and labor to further this work.

SERVICE RESTRICTION The main IAPSOP server is being overrun by unknown crawlers running on IP addresses controlled by Amazon Web Services (AWS), crawlers with IP addresses in the People's Republic of China, and other miscreants, all of which are almost certainly collecting materials to train large language models (LLMs) -- so-called "artificial intelligence." To ensure equitable access, the speed of any one connection to the IAPSOP archive is currently throttled, and the total bandwidth available is also limited. We apologize for the inconvenience. Service will be restored to normal when the pigs leave the trough... which is likely never. Free "AI" costs IAPSOP, and many other organizations, quite a bit.
