AtoZ was an apazine by Arthur Thomson (Atom) for OMPA. While the title is often given as Atoz it's clear that Thomson meant it to be AtoZ (see for instance the colophon in #3).

Thomson re-used the column title 'Odd Notes' he'd previously used in Veritas, an OMPAzine jointly produced with John Berry. He subsequently revived it in Ella Parker's Compact #1 (March 1963), where he wrote 'I dropped out of OMPA due to a severe attack of laziness'. Interestingly, he refers there to his OMPAzine as AToz although the capitalisation may be Parker's rather than his.
