ACDC Celebrates Its 35th Anniversary!
\n<\/span><\/h2>\n

The year 2016 marks the 35 <\/span> th <\/sup> anniversary of the Agricultural Communications Documentation Center. It began with about 15 agricultural communications courses being taught here at the University of Illinois \u2013 and a frustrating lack of teaching resources for them. We thought few resources existed, and how wrong we were. They existed, scattered so widely as to be invisible. <\/span><\/p>\n

Today, the ACDC collection totals more than 42,000 documents about the communications aspects of agriculture, broadly defined.\u00a0 They involve agriculture-related communications in 211 countries, 79 languages and more than 34,000 authors.\u00a0 And we are hardly scratching the surface. <\/span><\/p>\n

We express sincere thanks to all who have helped \u2013 and are helping – capture and expand the vision, focus the effort, gather resources and make ACDC a valuable resource and service, internationally. <\/span><\/p>\n
