- Blog entry dated October 13th, 2011
- The Plantin-Moretus Museum in Antwerp will play host to the first meeting of News Networks in Early Modern Europe. (We’re very grateful to the Museum for making their facilities available to us, and giving us such a fitting backdrop to our research.) As well as papers from network members, including Carmen Espejo and Paul Arblaster, the workshop will feature contributions from the first of many network associates, including Professor Andrew Pettegree, of the University of St. Andrews, and Dr Helmer Helmers, of the Universities of Leiden and Amsterdam.
- This is the first of a series of five workshops to be held over the next eighteen months, thematically organised around a loose progression from the general issues surrounding the histories of news and newspapers in early modern Europe, to particular case studies of specific channels of news transmission, sites of news production, and news events. The Antwerp meeting will be organised around discussions of media and methods, including questions of definition (what constitutes newsprint in the period?), existing approaches and pitfalls in the history of news, and locality.

- Workshop II: Paris, May 9th-11th 2012. Religion, Language and Geography.
-- a change of venue for the French meeting of News Networks; instead of Paris, as advertised, we will be meeting in Rennes from the 9th to the 11th of May 2012. We are very pleased to be adding to the programme Professor Mark Greengrass and Dr Sara Barker
- Workshop III: Frankfurt, August 31st – September 2nd 2012: Networks and Centres
- Workshop IV: Seville, November 22nd-23rd 2012: National & International News (1) – The Iberian Peninsula

- Those with enquiries about the project and its meetings, or suggestions for useful avenues for exploration, should direct them to the network facilitator, Noah Moxham (N.Moxham@uea.ac.uk)
