The National Coordinating Committee: An Advocacy Arm for the Historical and Archival Professions
- Bruce Craig
Abstract
For nearly 20 years now, the National Coordinating Committee for the Promotion of History (NCC) has served as a national advocacy office for the historical and archival professions. NCC is a consortium of 59 organizations (including MAC). It represents the historical and archival community on Capitol Hill dealing with issues involving federal funding and policy that have an impact on historical research and teaching, access to government information, the employment of historians and archivists, public programs, historic preservation, copyright, and education. The NCC has a one-person staff that operates from a third-floor office in the American Historical Association building on Capitol Hill located just a few tree-lined streets from the Library of Congress.
