POD and Map of Edinburgh

The JISC-funded AddressingHistory project is having its official launch on November 17 2010. The event will take place in the National Library of Scotland and the programme features a range of exciting talks related to Scottish history by projects that are working to make resources more widely available.

Join us for our official launch where we will be celebrating local Scottish history with a range of speakers and opportunities to network with others interested in the family, local, and Scottish history. (from the event invitation)

Places at the event are limited but those unable to attend in person can follow the event on Twitter (#AHlaunch) and via the AddressingHistory blog, which will have live postings and images from the event.  AddressingHistory will also be making information about the event available later via their blog, including video recordings of the talks.

More information about the AddressingHistory project can be found via the AddressingHistory website and blog. An introduction to the project has been published in the RunCoCo blog.
