Membership
Why should I join? Because members enjoy :
- Industrial Archaeology Review: The world’s leading IA journal, published twice yearly.
- IA News: A quarterly magazine containing information on current industrial archaeology events and news throughout the country.
- The Annual Conference: A popular get-together for all members. Held in a different part of the country each year, this consists of a weekend conference complemented by an additional programme over several days of field trips and informative lectures. Detailed gazetteers of sites in the area of the conference are produced and supplied free to members.
- Field Visits: In the UK and Overseas, organised and guided by people with long experience of Industrial Heritage tours.
- Practical Days: Workshops and discussions about issues and problems common to societies and professionals working in the field of industrial archaeology.
- Other conferences: To address specific interests and problems relating to industrial heritage.
- AIA Awards: To encourage excellence in industrial archaeology.
- A valuable forum: For individuals, amateur groups and professional bodies in the broad field of industrial archaeology.
- Discounts on Heritage of Industry Tours
But more importantly than the above, the support our members give us enables the AIA to continue its work in supporting and encouraging all aspects relating to our industrial heritage. We cannot do all we do, promoting IA at all levels – national and local – encouraging research, recording, conservation and preservation without our members’ help and support.
