SASM- External Links
This
section gives brief information on resources that may be of interest to
researchers. Short submissions about similar resources are always welcome,
please email us with
details for inclusion in a future issue of the Journal and/or this website. We
are also keen to collect a list of useful websites holding research documents
etc, please send them to the same email address, with a short description of
what is to be found there.
Internet resources which may be useful: In such a
diverse field there may well be links here which are meaningless to some, but
of immense value to others. Some links will be scholarly, such as libraries;
others may be links to sites owned by individual authors on occultism, magic
etc. This is necessary, as for those researching the modern period such sites
would comprise vital primary sources.
No responsibility is implied or accepted for the continuing existence, veracity
or copyright status of any material contained on websites external to SASM.
Some occult sites may contain ‘adult’ or
controversial material, such as language, imagery and opinions etc.
We are very happy to participate in reciprocal
linking with other relevant sites, please contact us to talk
about this.
