Bear's right.  This topic comes up on Unclutterer.com every now and
then.  And librarians comment that they don't need hard copies of
magazines and journals, since most of them have been digitized for
easier archiving and scanning.

One of their suggestions is to copy the editorial staff of "Linux
Journal".  They probably don't need back issues, but they may know
somebody who would want them.

If not, don't hesitate to throw them in the recycling bin.
