Index to the ALG Newsletters
1/10/2023
Thanks to the work of Jana ObrocnĂková there is now an index to the collected newsletters, going back to the first issue in 1986. It is in the form of a searchable spreadsheet which ALG members and non-members alike can access here. Just enter the name of an author, place, type of leather find or conservation treatment etc. in the search box and all corresponding entries will be listed by issue and page number.
Only members, however, have access to copies of all previous newsletters (via the Members’ Section of this website). We hope that once non-members realise the wealth of material they contain, it will persuade them of the value of joining!
