The Local Studies Librarian
The Local Studies Librarian is the official journal of CILIP's Local Studies Group. From 2011, it will be published annually in the Summer, with electronic newsletter issues published twice per year. Printed copies of the newsletters can be made available on request by contacting us.
The Local Studies Librarian is issued free to members of the group. Annual subscription to non-members is £6.00 UK and £8.00 (plus £1.00 service charge) overseas. Post free in both cases. Overseas service charge does not apply if payment is made in Sterling. Payments by non-members should be made to 'Local Studies Group of CILIP' and sent to the Honorary Secretary.
