Local Population Studies Society
The Local Population Studies Society (LPSS) is the United Kingdom's only charity solely devoted to the promotion of all aspects of historical demography in a local context. It publishes the internationally renowned journal Local Population Studies, and has an eclectic publications programme. LPSS organizes themed conferences on topics related to local populations in the past. Members of LPSS receive two copies of the journal and two newsletters each year, membership of the LPSS Book Club and advance notice of the LPSS conferences.
This website contains information about the Society and its outputs. The main feature of this site is the archive of back issues of the journal Local Population Studies. The issues covering publication from 1968 to 2007 are available free of charge on this site, though the Society welcomes orders for print copies of both those present on this site and those presently unavailable on this site.
CONFERENCES: The Autumn 2012 conference, "New Research in Local Population Studies", will be held in at the Gipsy Lane Campus, Oxford Brookes University, Oxford, on 3rd November 2012. Details soon.
