Journal and Proceedings of the Royal Society of New South Wales

Aims & Scope

The Society's journal is one of the oldest peer-reviewed publications in the Southern Hemisphere.

Much innovative research of the 19th and early 20th centuries was first brought to the attention of the scientific world through the Journal and Proceedings of the Royal Society of New South Wales.

In the last few decades specialist journals have become preferred for highly technical work but the Journal and Proceedings remains an important publication for multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary work.

The Journal and Proceedings is exchanged with many institutions worldwide.

Currently issues are usually published around June and December each year, although a single December issue appeared in 2016.
