I would agree with the statement above about the cost increase being small when considered over the course of a year. Costs everywhere are rising and it’s no suprise that club subscriptions need to rise, too.
Personally, I don’t feel that moving to an online only publication would be a good move. There may be others who are very happy to read the material online, but my experience of other clubs that have moved to electronic publications is that I read them much less frequently (and enjoy them much less) than when they were on paper. Some things work well online (from example classified adverts where responsiveness is helpful), but I’m not sure everything does.
The suggestion of looking at lower cost website hosting is sensible, but perhaps that’s something that has already been explored
