You are invited to the event at the University of Warwick, Wolfson Research Exchange, on Wednesday 14th January 2009 2-6pm being organised by the Institute of Historical Research.

The event at University of Warwick is an afternoon session. There will be a 45 minute presentation on the IHR, its history, current activities and the plans we have for the future. The IHR speaker will be accompanied by some of their colleagues who will be able to describe in more detail some of the work of our different sections. These presentations will be followed by either Q&A, or, if the numbers permit, small break-out groups for further discussion. The occasion will conclude with a drinks reception.

The IHR, established in 1921, is funded by HEFCE to facilitate research nationwide. With 60 staff and a £3m turnover we are equipped to provide a range of activities. We offer research training, hosting of events, listings, publications, digital resources, bibliographical services and support postgraduate and early career researcher networks. We run a junior research fellowship programme and are home to a world-class open access research library. We also publish Historical Research and Reviews in History.
