The '''''New Era'''''
▲'''''New Era''''' is an official [[magazine]] of [[The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]] (LDS Church). First published in January 1971 along with the [[Ensign (LDS magazine)|''Ensign'']] and the [[The Friend (Mormon magazine)|''Friend'']], the ''New Era's'' intended audience has always been the church's youth. The magazine replaced the similarly themed ''[[The Improvement Era]]'', a periodical published from 1897 to 1970.<ref>[http://mormonlit.lib.byu.edu/lit_work.php?w_id=1142 The Improvement Era] entry in [[BYU]]'s "Mormon Literature Database"</ref>
In its first issue, the editor of the ''New Era'' explained the rationale for its creation, stating:
:''By direction of the [[First Presidency (LDS Church)|First Presidency]], the ''New Era'' is the publication arm of the Church to the unmarried persons of the kingdom—those from twelve up to marriage.
