THIS ISSUE COMPLETES THE SECOND ACADEMIC YEAR FOR THE AFRO-SCHOLAR NEWS­
LETTER. IT HAS, IN THIS SHORT PERIOD, EMERGED AS A MAJOR RESOURCE TOOL FOR PERSONS
IN AFRO-AMERICAN STUDIES AND RELATED AREAS OF CONCERN THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES
(AND, TO SOME EXTENT, ELSEWHERE). IT IS IN HIGH DEMAND. OVER 3,000 COPIES OF THE
LAST EDITION WERE DISTRIBUTED. THE AFRO-SCHOLAR NEWSLETTER HAS GROWN IN SIZE
DURING THE PAST TWO YEARS, AND MAILING COSTS HAVE INCREASED.
THE FINANCIAL BURDEN TO THE AFRO-AMERICAN STUDIES AND RESEARCH PROGRAM HAS
BECOME TREMENDOUS. WE ARE COMMITTED TO KEEPING THIS RESOURCE AVAILABLE FOR THE
USE OF OUR COLLEAGUES AND FRIENDS. BUT TO INSURE THAT THE HIGH QUALITY AND WIDE
DISTRIBUTION ARE MAINTAINED, WE NEED YOUR HELP. BEGINNING WITH THE NEXT NEWSLETTER
(SEPTEMBER, 1982), THERE WILL BE A SUBSCRIPTION FEE: $10.00 PER ACADEMIC YEAR FOR
INDIVIDUALS AND $15.00 FOR INSTITUTIONS. THIS COST INCLUDES POSTAGE. MONIES
OBTAINED IN THIS MANNER WILL HELP US DEFRAY SOME, THOUGH NOT ALL, OF OUR EXPENSES.
WE ARE GRATEFUL FOR YOUR COOPERATION.
