The Tolkien Society is entirely run by volunteers in their spare time. At present we are expanding the web team from the webmaster with occasional help from other skilled people, (the case until late 2002) to a team who we hope will be able to help to develop the website beyond what is possible for one person.

This section is one which will particularly benefit as more members volunteer to join the team. Meanwhile it will be updated whenever time permits.
