The University of Glasgow hosted a one-day conference on LGBTI (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Intersex) Human Rights in the Commonwealth yesterday (Friday). To tie in with this the university's Archives and Special Collections took a look at documents concerning LGBTI rights in their collections - for a discussion on findings, visit the university library's blog at http://universityofglasgowlibrary.wordpress.com/2014/07/17/discovering-lgbti-rights-in-archives-and-special-collections/.

Now available for UK research is the new second edition of the best selling Tracing Your Family History on the Internet: A Guide for Family Historians, whilst my new book British and Irish Newspapers is also now out. And FindmyPast - please reinstate the original Scottish census citations on your new site.
The GENES Blog (GEnealogy News and EventS) ceased publication on 14 FEB 2020. You will now find all the latest genealogy news and views on Scottish GENES at https://scottishgenes.blogspot.com. The GENES Blog archive will remain live, with a record of the genealogy news for Britain and Ireland from 2013-2020. Thank you!
