It may be time to take another look at the Events Listing on the website of the National Library of Scotland. There are quite a few talks, etc., coming up over the next few months, and they all have to be booked in advance.
Staying in Scotland, DeceasedOnline are set to make a big announcement regarding Scottish burial records at the forthcoming SAFHS Conference - see here. Not sure if this relates to one of their recent record releases, or is something new altogether.
A couple of July issues have been released in the last day or two. The latest editions of HistoryToday and WDYTYA? Magazine are now available. The latter are also running a competition, here.
