Newsletter

The West Virginia & Regional History Center Newsletter is dedicated to disseminating information about the WVRHC and its mission to preserve and provide access to information resources that document the history of West Virginia and the Central Appalachian Region. The newsletters consist of brief scholarly articles, primarily about the holdings of the WVRHC with an emphasis on recent accessions, as well as guides to research and news releases about special projects and activities at the Center. Each issue also contains a selected list of recent acquisitions. 

The WVRHC Newsletter is mailed free of charge to all current donors to the WVRHC. To receive the free digital newsletter,  sign up here and check the West Virginia & Regional History Center box.
