A New Year, A New Look, A New Chapter...

​

The Royal Studies Network (RSN) is proud to present a fresh look with our new logo (in two finishes)! For the past 8 years, the network has emerged as a leading, global resource for studies related to monarchical and princely power, dynastic cultures, and all research related to royal topics. 2019 saw the successful launch of new initiatives including the RSN historiography database, an updated and engaging website with an active information page, and quarterly newsletters archive. Additionally, the RSN achieved a significant milestone as we reached 500 active members! 

​

Therefore, to celebrate RSN’s achievements over the past 8 years and to mark 2020 as the next chapter of RSN’s growth and transformation, we are introducing two initiatives. The first is the reveal of the new logo and RSN’s revamped look. The second project will be a series of features that will be posted on our website, over the course of the year, to highlight the scholarly publications and ventures that have emerged from RSN’s research network. To do this, we will be asking our members to share their stories and tell us about projects that have been inspired by or developed from the collaborative, interdisciplinary, and active community of the Royal Studies Network. 

​

Finally, 2020 is not just about celebrating our achievements, our mission is also about continuing to grow and find new ways to support our members, develop opportunities to foster innovative research, and improve the online platform to meet the demands of RSN’s   advancement. Therefore, the RSN team has set a number of goals, including pushing towards 1000 members. In order to do this, we encourage all of our members to get out and spread the word about the RSN, as well as urge people to join the RSN. 

​

We hope that you will join us in this celebration as we appreciate our new logo and fresh appearance. Most importantly, we want to thank everyone for the support, encouragement, and contributions that have truly transformed the RSN. Here’s to an extraordinary 2020!
