After 186 years of annual publication, this is the very last edition that will be published in its traditional form and it will be a rapidly snapped-up collectors' item. Every year, The Church of Scotland Year Book is keenly anticipated, with large numbers buying their copy on the date of publication. It includes all essential information and most of the usual detail with some lower-level information now signposted towards the Church of Scotland website. This compendium of vital information includes every key contact within the Church and pointers to further information as well as information on procedures and protocols. Careful updates are made throughout to the many useful statistics and there is an extensive index. 2015 is another very important year at the General Assembly and the Year Book will reflect all of the key decisions made. A new and exciting but very different form of Year Book will be launched in 2016 and more information about this is described in the Editor's Foreword to the 2015-16 edition. But, for those who love the traditional Year Book, this will be the last opportunity to purchase a copy.
