About

Local Studies Scotland (LocScot) is an organisation devoted to the care and dissemination of local and family history material in Scotland. Most of our members are librarians who work in the front line of local studies, but we also have academics, experts and interested folk and organisations from the history and heritage sector.

We are the Scottish sub-group of the CILIP Local Studies Group.

More information on LocScot can be found on our Group page on the CILIPS website.

We communicate via a JISCMail mailing list, LIS-LOCSCOT – please feel free to subscribe/contribute.
