ALMANAC TO TEXAS STATE HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION


The Dallas Morning News' Belo parent annouces that the vaunted 150 year old TEXAS ALMANAC is being moved, transferred, donated, given to the century old Texas State Historical Association which itself had recently moved to the University of North Texas. That includes its website at http://www.texasalmanac.com/

The two items, the book and the website, will be interesting companions to TSHA's Handbook of Texas (and online), TSHA's website, and the Southwestern Historical Quarterly, among TSHA's other many on-going contributions.
