Previous Update: May 15, 2022. (Thanks to Eve A. Stone)
Added June 23, 2020: Thanks to the efforts of Gadi Aleksandrowicz, the archives of the Heberew periodical "Gilyonot le-matematika", for "high school students and amateurs" (edited, for many years, by my mentor, Joe Gillis z"l), and its successors, Etgar, and most recently, Net-gar (edited by my good friend Ron Aharoni yla"a), are back here, until they find a more permaent place. I believe that this is very improtant, not only mathematically, but historically. Thanks Gadi!
Added July 12, 2023: Unforunately, the archive to gilyonot is currently not "open access", but Professor Anat Yarden, current chair of the Department of Science Education at the Weizmann Institute of Science, kindly pointed out that volume 1 is free access. I really hope that Gadi Aleksandrowicz will be able to restore everything.
