I would suspect not if they are the “popular” magazines. Typically those publishers provide those for the intent of the individual user, not a library accessible model; however, if it is an academic publication, they very well may have a mobile app that is available to access their publications. You’d need to check the license and/or the publisher’s terms of use.

Subject: [SERIALST] Magazine apps
Hello all,
I am passing along a question that has come up from Ipad users. How do you handle print subscriptions that include the opportunity to register the app on an Ipad or Android device? Can you hand out passwords to patrons who want to have a magazine app on their mobile device?
Thanks!
Tiffanie
