Victorian Periodicals Review is the official journal of the Research Society for Victorian Periodicals.
Volume: 42 (2009)The only refereed journal that concentrates on the editorial and publishing history of Victorian Periodicals, Victorian Periodicals Review (VPR) emphasizes the importance of periodicals for an understanding of the history and culture of Victorian Britain, Ireland, and the Empire. Though it originated in the 1960s as a response to the narrow range of index and information on the topic, VPR has since developed a large and far-reaching audience. The Review has evolved into a review with an annual index, member questionnaires, and one of a projected series of guides to major research libraries and their holdings, list of forthcoming articles, obituaries of members who played a substantial role and informative articles on a wide range of topics from a variety of disciplines.
