Scottish Genealogy Network to meet in Edinburgh on March 4th

After a very successful meeting in Glasgow last weekend (see https://scottishgenes.blogspot.com/2023/02/scottish-genealogy-network-meets-in.html), the Scottish Genealogy Network (http://scottishgenealogynetwork.blogspot.com) will be meeting again very soon, in Edinburgh, on Saturday 4th March. The venue will be the Guildford Arms, next to the National Records of Scotland, at 1pm.

The Scottish Genealogy Network is, as it suggests, a network for those who work professionally within the family history world in Scotland, whether as a genealogist, archivist, librarian, tutor, or in ancestral tourism. There's no membership fee, it's a group of like-minded folk coming together to discuss the various issues and challenges that we encounter in our everyday lives in the industry, over a drink or a bite to eat. We have visited archives in the past to help in our professional development, and have also held our own conferences for members. We also have our own private Facebook group where we can share news, events and help each other out, with access to this group conditional on attendance at a meeting. You can find out more about us at the SGN website above, and read several past events reports there also. 

If you are a working genealogist, work professionally in an associated discipline, or are a retired professional in the field, you'll be most welcome to attend - hopefully we'll see you there!
