This is something we should all know about, since almost all sites have
beads on them. I am sending a note to Karlis Karklins to ask what the
membership dues are, and how to order back issues.

SOCIETY OF BEAD RESEARCHERS
Interested in beads and their research potential around the world? =
If so, our Society will be of interest to you.
The Society of Bead Researchers was formed in 1981 to foster
research on beads of all materials and periods, and to expedite the
dissemination of the resultant knowledge. Membership is open to all
persons involved in the study of beads, especially archaeologists,
ethnologists and museologists, as well as collectors and those
interested in keeping abreast of current trends in bead research.
The Society publishes a biannual newsletter, The Bead Forum, and an
annual journal, Beads. Contents of the newsletter include current
research news, requests for information, responses to queries,
listings of recent publications, conference and exhibition
announcements, and brief articles on various aspects of bead
research.
There are four levels of membership: Individual, Sustaining, Patron
and Benefactor. All levels receive the same publications and
benefits; the three latter categories are simply intended to allow
those who are in a position to donate larger amounts to the Society
to do so. Back issues of The Bead Forum (Nos. 1-25, through 1994)
are available to new members.
Articles and other items for The Bead Forum and Beads are invited
and should be sent to Karlis Karklins, SBR Editor, Parks Canada,
1600 Liverpool Court, Ottawa, Ontario KlA OM5, Canada.
