The Poor Law Officers' Journal was a journal published in England and Wales which kept Poor Law Officials up to date with changes in the laws relating to Poor Law administration. The journal was set up in Rochdale, a large market town in Greater Manchester, and published from 1892 to 1929.[1] It changed its name to the Public Assistance Journal and Health & Hospital Review which became the Health Service Journal in 1986.
