Next Monday, May 5th, at 7:30 p.m., in the Padre Salmerón Library in Cieza, the Fray Pasqual Salmerón Center for Historical Studies will present the latest issue of Andelma magazine, led by its director, Manuela Caballero González. This time, the cover is the work of artist Antonio Buitrago Puche.
And with the new one coming out, corresponding to 2024, this Cieza-based magazine has now reached 33 issues, and has been active for 22 years, defending the heritage and history of Cieza, its region, and the entire Region of Murcia. Readers, members, and friends of the Center for Historical Studies have been eagerly awaiting this magazine, a fact that could not be more appropriate for this occasion, when its launch has been slightly delayed due to the number of cultural events taking place in Cieza.
Andelma is an open-access scientific journal available online and is available free of charge to all attendees at the presentation. Its objectives include recovering, preserving, and disseminating the historical, cultural, and natural heritage of Cieza and its surrounding region and the Autonomous Community of the Region of Murcia. It is also indexed in most specialized research databases in the humanities and social sciences, such as Dialnet, ERIHPLUS, DOAJ, and REDIB, among others.
