Description: # APS Journals
        _A pythonic interface for browsing APS_
        
        The `apsjournals` library is a collection of tools used for exploring American 
        Physical Society publications via python.

        ## Motivation
        Admittedly, the APS website is well-built. Why `apsjournals` then? 
        1. The APS website does not offer an official API. This library offers a set of usable abstractions 
        to help explore some of the available data.
        1. It is not possible to download an entire Issue as a single PDF in the current website. 
        Future versions of `apsjournals` will offer such behavior.
        1. Why not? Interacting with APS publications via Python is fun.
        
        ## Loading Articles 
        The `apsjournals` library offers several ways to load articles. The easiest of which
        is by picking a Journal, then specifying a volume and issue number. The library will then
        load the entire issue, including all articles. For example:
        ```python
        >>> from apsjournals import PRL
        >>> PRL
        Journal('Physical Review Letters')
        
        >>> PRL.issue(121, 6)
        Issue('Physical Review Letters', 121, 6)
        
        >>> PRL.issue(121, 6).articles[:3]
        [Article('Magnetic Levitation Stabilized by Streaming Fluid Flows'),
         Article('First Six Dimensional Phase Space Measurement of an Accelerator Beam'),
         Article('Ubiquitous Spin-Orbit Coupling in a Screw Dislocation with High Spin Coherency')]
        ```
