With apologies for the delay in posting, due to the Celtic Congress in Salamanca next year, the CHN will not host our own sessions at the 2027 IMC. We are instead sponsoring the following two panels at @imc-leeds.bsky.social and encourage anyone interested to submit! Deadlines are 15 & 20 September

A little while ago celtichagiography.org/bibliography had a big overhaul and has new functionalities (a new tagging system, Chicago style citations, etc) - still a work in progress as it's still missing entries and many need to be corrected again, but contributions now can also be made by the public

There's a new resource available here: celtichagiography.org/bibliography/ It is a running bibliography of publications focused on the saints in Ireland, Scotland, Man, Wales, Brittany, Cornwall, and 'Celtic' saints on the continent. While a work in progress, currently there are 500 publications
celtichagiography.org
Bibliography – The Celtic Hagiography Network
This bibliography can be sorted or searched by year, author, type of publication, subject, or saint’s name. Entries populate by the most recent year of publication, and if a publication is available online (open access or otherwise) it is linked below. Let us know of new publications (or missing publications) here.
