The Quarterly


Journal of the Society


The Society publishes a scholarly journal, the Quarterly, four times per year. It includes original articles, book reviews, record transcriptions, queries, and regional and national coming events. A subscription to the Quarterly is a benefit of membership.

Electronic Delivery Option


Our Quarterly is now available for home delivery via e-mail. Members may elect to receive their quarterly journal either through the postal mail service or electronically via e-mail. Each quarter, subscribers will receive e-mail notification that the current Quarterly is available. Clicking on the Internet address in this e-mail message will open the journal in your browser (Mac) or in Adobe Acrobat Reader (PC). Home subscribers may then either view the newsletter online or print a copy to their local printer.
