The digital archive and editions:
The publishers of Archaeology Ireland, Wordwell, have partnered with digital publishing experts Exact Editions to deliver digital editions to subscribers. With the digital archive individual and institutional subscribers alike can instantly access every published issue, from the first one in 1987 to the latest quarterly edition, creating an invaluable resource of over 100 issues of well-researched and lavishly illustrated articles as featured in the quarterly, as well as over 70 heritage guide supplements that study a range of Irish archaeological sites in fine combed detail.
Published every quarter since 1987, each issue of Archaeology Ireland brings up to date authoritative information on Ireland’s archaeological investigations to a wide audience in an accessible format. This 52pp full colour magazine is a well-respected title, read by professionals, academics and the very many archaeology enthusiasts, in Ireland and internationally.
Each issue of Archaeology Ireland is accompanied by a 6pp Heritage Guide (since 1998). Heritage Guides are highly illustrated and informative guide to Ireland’s sites and monuments—the lesser known as well as the familiar.
