MoreThe North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service publications contain a wide variety of published material relating to the activities, aims, functions, and programs of the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service. Through the years, the Service's mission has encompassed agricultural education, agricultural extension work, home demonstration work, and rural extension. In 1909, the Service played a vital role in establishing boys' clubs, which later became 4-H clubs. Through the Home Demonstration Department (later Department of Family and Consumer Sciences), girls' clubs were soon added to the programs available for young people. The records represent both single and serialized items. Materials range in date from 1916 to 2022, and include archived web cotent. Although extension and demonstration work in North Carolina had been active since the early years of the twentieth century, the North Carolina Agricultural Extension Service was only officially created in 1914 as a result of the Smith-Lever Act. In 1991 the name was changed to the current one, the Cooperative Extension Service.
