LOCAL HISTORY SOCIETIES: Community-based Local History Studies Movement
Last saved: 7 December 2005
This research project provides the basis for the first all-Ireland register of local history societies, including those affiliated to the Federation of Local History Societies (FLHS), those affiliated to the Federation of Ulster Local Studies (FULS),and those with no formal affiliation to any federation. It also assesses the existing linkages between local history societies North and South of the border, and investigates the provision of training/education in local history methodology. Through a major questionnaire survey, and the collaboration of the local history federations, it succeeds in identifying 330 societies, considerably more than was previously estimated.
