RE: A journal your library needs to know about

                     Increasingly frequent requests from public and university libraries

for information about Pembroke Magazine underlined have prompted us to send this

information sheet to periodical librarians across the country.

       The Pembroke Magazineunderlined, moving into its fifth year of publication,

is a unique addition to the little magazine movement in America during

the past six decades. The founder and editor of Pembroke Magazine underlined is

1972 Horace Gregory Award winner Norman Macleod. Pembroke Magazineunderlined

exhibits the artistic and editorial expertise that Macleod has brought

to little magazines from his earlier experience editing magazines such

as Morada underlined (1929-30), praised by Ezra Pound as the magazine most likely

to continue the work of Margaret Anderson's Little Reviewunderlined; Frontunderlined (1930-31);

the Maryland Quarterlyunderlined (1942-44), and the Briarcliff Quarterlyunderlined (1944-47).

In addition to being a major force in the little magazines over the

past five decades, Macleod has had professional and personal friendships

with many of the major literary figures in American and international

letters of the 20th century. These friendships have insured and continue

to insure the Pembroke Magazineunderlined of first rate literary and artistic material.

      The Pembroke Magazineunderlined spans cultures in its publication of Third

World writers from North Carolina, from the United States, and from

abroad. It offers work from a variety of ages and preoccupations. And
