While it would be difficult to improve on The E-Sylum, I do have a suggestion.

My first thought would be to number each article each week in your table of contents instead of the bullet points. This would aid finding it when a reference is made to it later.

Then I realized you have all existing articles sequentially numbered in the Complete Table of Contents. Could you assign this sequence number in each issue as published? This could appear instead of - or in addition to - the bullet point for each article. This would aid searching for a previous article as I do constantly.

Then citations would be for example: 13942, Oct 2014 instead of the unwieldy Volume Number, Issue Number, Article Number. Including the date is important, as it gives meaning to when it was published (absent in the present system).

There is precedence for this. Index 19th Century American Art Periodicals by Mary Martin Schmidt, where every article is so serially numbered.

I do a lot of referring back to previous E-Sylum articles. This method would be far more convenient.
