Abstract 

In 1979, the first issue of a new newsletter for clinical microbiologists was published. The purpose of Clinical Microbiology Newsletter (CMN), a twice-a-month publication, was to provide clinical microbiology laboratorians, clinical pathologists, and infectious disease clinicians with concise mini-reviews of recent findings in the field. Editorial opinions, case reports of unusual organisms or infections, and several other features were included. The success of the Newsletter was immediate. Although the format and editorship have undergone changes, CMN is now beginning its 30th year of publication and is available online, as well as in print format. CMN continues its mission of providing readers with the most up-to-date information of value in their laboratory endeavors.
