CfP! Do send us an abstract if your work in bibliography, book history, church history, theology or library science intersects with the Bible Society's rich collections.

We're looking forward to an exciting set of papers on September 26th-27th.

The deadline for abstracts is August 25th which is, um, a bank holiday.

We encourage all colleagues to take the opportunity for a break and time with family/friends. Do get in touch (biblesocietyconference [at] gmail [dot] com) if you'd like to speak but can't submit on time.

Rough ideas, work in progress, and contributions from postgrads and junior scholars are welcome. We also hope that online presentation and participation will be feasible. Any questions, drop us a line at biblesocietyconference [at] gmail [dot] com or a DM!
