IN CELEBRATION OF THE NATIONAL FEDERATION OF PRESS WOMEN
The histories behind
the Federation A brief history of Virginia Press Women and Virginia Professional Communicators
The year is 2060 A.D. You are a young college student, passionate about writing, public relations, history and free speech. You've traveled to the Virginia Media Center. It used to be called The Library of Virginia, long ago, when libraries consisted of collections of books. You've studied that in history, and heard your great grandparents talk about them. Everything is different now.
You visit the archives, that magical place where items from long ago are kept. There are things you don't see much anymore: books, magazines, photographs on paper, and your favorite thing—newspapers. . . . Keep reading.

You can also make a gift to the organization as a lasting tribute to the memory of family members or friends.
