The League Bulletin, CLHO's newsletter, is the chief means of communication to its members. The Bulletin provides current professional, technical, and educational information to people who preserve and share Connecticut history for public distribution.

The Bulletin supplies members with a calendar of events including grant deadlines, meetings, conferences and League programs. It provides the latest League news, job postings and member to member news. An important part of the Bulletin is the Professional Basic articles which provide practical information to those unable to attend programs and serve as accessible reference materials. Recent PB articles include "Fundraising Strategies for Small Museums" and "Exhibit Development". Another great aspect of the Bulletin in the series on Connecticut History which have included articles on "Connecticut in the Age of Rail" and "Grooming the Great Refuge: A Brief History of Connecticut Lawns."
