Contents of the newsletter include current research news, requests for information, responses to queries, listings of recent publications, conference and symposia announcements, and brief articles on various aspects of bead research.
THE BEAD FORUM INDEX: Nos. 1-27 (1982-1995)
Since the first issue appeared in 1982, The Bead Forum has
provided information about various aspects of bead research and SBR activities.
Much of the material especially the articles and news items is still relevant
to researchers and Society officers, but frequently difficult to find without
leafing through most or all of the issues. This index, prepared to mark the 15thanniversary
of Society of Bead Researchers (1981-1995), is intended to alleviate this
problem and facilitate the flow of information.
The index is divided into two sections: an author index and a subject index.
The former is not all-inclusive, but only lists those items that have research
or reference potential. Items such as society news, treasurer's and president's
reports, announcements, requests for information and recent publications have
generally not been included unless they contain material which is unique. The
subject index is not exhaustive by any means either, but will allow the user to
locate a wide range of subject matter.
In the author index, the numbers following each entry indicate the issue number
followed by the page numbers. In the subject index, only the number of the
first page is listed.
