Newsletter Index

Although our newsletters are not available online, the index to them is, and can be downloaded by following the link below.

The index covers from Newsletter 1, in January 1970, to the 444th edition in May 2024.

Please be aware that the index is over 50 pages long, so it is quite a wordy document!

If you do use the index, a few words of caution…..

We have endeavoured to index every reference to be found in our newsletters. This means, however, that there are many merely passing references. In order to try to make it more meaningful, more in depth references have been highlighted in bold in the Index.

But, just because an entry is in bold, this does not necessarily mean that there is a complete article on the subject. Rather, it is a reference which may be of benefit to a person researching this subject. The decision to highlight something in bold is totally subjective, so if you order a newsletter from us, and then find that it is of no use to you, you have been warned!

The index is not guaranteed to be error-free – it has been the work of one person over many hours. If any significant errors are found, please inform the society so that corrections can be made to future editions.

Ordering Past Newsletters

We carry a stock of past newsletters at our meetings and take them to events as well. But once we have run out of any particular edition we don’t reprint it. However, if you would like to order any newsletters, we can arrange an electronic transfer of them to you – please contact us by email.

We only charge 20p for the old newsletters (minimum charge of £1), but the more modern editions are more expensive.
