Geology in the History of Provincial Scientific Societies

We are all aware of the bicentenary celebrations for the Geological Society held in 2007 and the sesquicentenary celebrations for the Geologists’ Association held during 2008, but there are many provincial societies involved in geology (natural history, philosophical, antiquarian, as well as geological) which also have long and colourful histories.

The meeting will look at any aspect of the history of these provincial societies - their membership, activities, publications, collections, their relationship with each other and with the national societies, the personalities, and their future.

The registration fee for this meeting is being capped at £5 (advance bookings only). Please complete the registration form below and return it before 31 March 2010.
