A chairde,
 
I recently attended a Gaelic poetry reading in London and met the executive
director of BAIS.  This mail gives an overview of this organisation and
outlines an interesting conference entitled "New Directions in Irish Studies".
 
BAIS is a cultural and educational body dedicated to expanding Irish Studies
at all levels within the British Educational system and to raising their
professional status.  Non-sectarian and non-political, it seeks membership
from all those with a bone fide interest in Irish studies.  Further details
may be obtained from:
