The IHR's seminar programme has always served as a vital resource for historians in London who have been able to attend in person. In order to help fulfil its remit to facilitate historical research throughout the whole country, the Institute has begun a trial programme to record and broadcast a selection of seminars. It is also intended to broadcast significant lectures, such as the Director's Inaugural.
