The Irish American Cultural Institute is the proud publisher of the journal Éire- Ireland, which since its first appearance in 1966 has been the premier journal devoted to Irish Studies in North America. The journal is published twice a year, with Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter issues. It is interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary in scope, though articles on modern Irish history and modern Irish literature dominate the wide-ranging fare. The journal also features articles dealing with the literature and history of Irish America. One issue each year is devoted to a special theme or subject.   The journal is available in print and electronic versions. The electronic version is a publication of Project MUSE of the Johns Hopkins University Press; in this form the journal is available in more than 2,700 libraries and other institutions around the world. Project MUSE also offers back issues of Éire-Ireland in electronic form to its subscribers for the whole period 1994-2018. Co-Editor Jim Donnelly (active since 2001) has recently been succeeded by Nicholas Wolf of New York University, who joins Vera Kreilkamp as Co-Editor.
