AVISTA Forum Journal (1986–2013)
From 1986 to 2013, The Association Villard de Honnecourt for Interdisciplinary Study of Medieval Technology, Science, and Art published the AVISTA Forum Journal. The journal contains articles, notes, queries, and reviews of significant articles in other journals as well as information on pending conferences relevant to AVISTA. After 2016, AVISTA turned its focus to expanding our book series, which you can find more information about here.
A warm thanks all our editors, contributors, and readers! The AVISTA Forum Journal ceased publication with Volume 23.
