2002– · THE DIRECTORY'S "CURRENT" AGAINST THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS TITLE RECORD'S 2015

What it is: the town's twenty-first-century paper, founded 2002 (LCCN SN2002062421), and the paper of the town's recent memory: it is the New Carlisle News that carried the SARE project's article of September 10, 2010, with Susan Jones named as its editor in the grant report's credits. Its end is a printed conflict of the directory class, carried whole in the sibling newspapers leg: Chronicling America-derived listings still carry the News as "2002 to current," while the Library of Congress's own title record closes the paper in 2015 with a final issue — volume 13, issue 20, January 9, 2015. The title record governs, and both readings stand in print; since January 2015 the town's news has run the way small towns' news now runs everywhere — through the county seat's daily, treated next. For this sources leg the News matters one further way: it is the last paper whose file, if it survives whole anywhere, carries the town's 2002–2015 course at first hand, and the location of that file stands in the sibling leg's gaps register (GAP-NC-NWS-6) with the state library's microfilm index and Miller's bibliography as settlers.

Principal sources: U.S. Newspaper Directory and Library of Congress title records as carried in the sibling newspapers leg (NC-2) and the directory extracts read; USDA SARE grant report (2010), read first-hand, for the paper and its editor in 2010.
