Carolina Comments

by Jeffrey J. Crow, 2006

The January 2007 issue of Carolina Comments. Image from the North Carolina Digital Collections. [2]Carolina Comments began in 1952 as a newsletter of the North Carolina Department of Archives and History [3]. The newsletter reported on historical activities in the department and around the state and served as an organ of the North Carolina Literary and Historical Association [4]. Much of the information that had been appearing in the "Historical News" section of the North Carolina Historical Review [5] was absorbed by Carolina Comments. In the late 1970s the newsletter took on a more structured format, with regular reports from each section in the Division of Archives and History; news from state, county, and local historical organizations as well as colleges and universities; feature stories; and occasional articles. It continues to be published six times a year (January, March, May, July, September, and November).

Update from NCpedia Staff: 

2013: Carolina Comments became a quarterly publication in 2003.
