Previously the location of rings of bells was a matter only of local knowledge and hearsay. Dove produced eight editions of his guide between 1950 and 1994, managing to visit and ring at nearly all the ringable towers himself (a never-ending task as rings are continually added, removed or upgraded and, at least in the Guide's early years, rediscovered). </p><p>After 1994, he handed over responsibility for the <i>Guide</i> to the <a href="/wiki/Central_Council_of_Church_Bell_Ringers" title="Central Council of Church Bell Ringers">Central Council of Church Bell Ringers</a>. The 11th edition (December 2018) is the most recent published as a book (now under the title <i>Dove's Guide</i>) and is also made available as a database for free access via the Internet: the Central Council continues to maintain the guide online. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Contents">Contents</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Dove%27s_Guide_for_Church_Bell_Ringers&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Contents"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Entries in the <i>Guide</i> traditionally listed the <a href="/wiki/Town" title="Town">town</a> or <a href="/wiki/Village" title="Village">village</a>, the <a href="/wiki/County" title="County">county</a> (or <a href="/wiki/Country" title="Country">country</a>), the dedication (saint) of the church, the number of bells, the weight of the tenor (the largest bell) and its musical note, and the tower's usual practice night. It also noted whether the bells were in an unringable or unsafe condition. Appendices (not currently available online) also give information about rings of bells by number, weight, and county; a list of the heaviest bells in the British Isles; and details of changes since the previous edition. This information is helpful for those interested in trends over time. The online guide is, however, searchable by almost every criterion. </p><p>Although it was sometimes assumed to be exhaustive, <i>Dove's Guide</i> never pretended to be a complete catalogue. In fact, the <i>Guide</i> is under continual review and enhancement. Map <a href="/wiki/Grid_reference" class="mw-redirect" title="Grid reference">grid references</a> are now shown, and even details of towers as <a href="/wiki/Points_of_interest" class="mw-redirect" title="Points of interest">points of interest</a> for users of satellite navigation systems: details of individual bells in each ring are being added gradually. </p><p>It is an invaluable aid for the holidaying bell ringer looking for a tower to visit, or for organising a <i>tower grab</i> (ringing outing). However, contact information for towers is still best obtained from individual websites and reports.<sup id="cite_ref-refname_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-refname-1"><span
