Fall Meeting of the NCC Historical Society – October 9, 2021
The fall meeting of the North Carolina Historical Society and the Commission on Archives and History will take place on October 9, 2021, at the NCC United Methodist Conference Building in Garner, NC.
We will meet at 10:00 AM and break for lunch at noon. Our guest speaker will be Katie Benjamin, Director, Duke University School Library. Dr. Benjamin holds a BA in Theology and English from Valparaiso University, her MLS from North Carolina Central University, and her MTS and ThD in the History and Theology of the European Reformations from Duke Divinity School. She joined the staff as Divinity Library Director in 2018, and she teaches courses in the historical division at Duke Divinity School.
The focus will be on the resources that are available at the Divinity School Library, especially about archival collections related to the history of the North Carolina Conference and its churches and pastors. We are also interested in exploring the possibility of creating a partnership with the Divinity School Library to see how your resources and the resources of the NC Conference Archives could benefit each other.
