Vol. 30 of BEADS: Journal of the Society of Bead Researchers should be printed and ready for distribution by the end of the month. It contains a variety of articles and book reviews that we hope will be of interest to the bead research and collecting communities (see below). If you are currently not a member of the Society and wish to receive this journal, contact me at karlis4444@gmail.com and I will send you a PayPal invoice or the address where you can send a check or MO. Membership for 2018 is only $20 US for North America and $30 US for other destinations. You may join for 2019 at this time as well but be aware that the dues for this year have increased to $25 and $35, respectively, to keep pace with ever increasing printing and shipping costs.
With best wishes,
