What is History Lab Plus?
HistoryLab+ is the Institute of Historical Research’s network for early-career historians. The committee works with the IHR, learned societies, and professionals across the education, GLAM, publishing, and other sectors to provide members with tailored support, including career-development training, networking opportunities, resources, and a programme of events showcasing recent historical research and projects in a wide variety of specialisms. If you are approaching the end of a doctorate in History or a related subject or a post-doc in the early stages of a career in any sector, then HistoryLab+ could be for you!
