Publications
The Proceedings of the Huguenot Society of Great Britain and Ireland, the Society’s annual journal, is distributed to Fellows and Subscribing Libraries at the beginning of October. Papers read at the Society's meetings are published in the Proceedings, together with other articles relevant to Huguenot history. Book reviews, short miscellaneous pieces, and information about current research and conferences are also included.
Back numbers of the Proceedings, 1885 to 2007, are now available to Huguenot Society members on the internet. To access these, please register your password in the website Members' Area.
If you are not yet a member of the Society, but would like to join, please go to the Membership page.
The Quarto Series, begun in 1887, has been published in 61 occasional volumes, many of which contain transcripts or translations of the registers of Huguenot churches. A good number of the Quarto Series, especially the parish records, are now out of print and difficult to obtain, even on the second hand market. For this reason, Council decided to make some of the more important volumes available on CD-ROM and the project was launched in 2004. The Editorial Committee encourages research into material suitable for publication in the Quarto Series and new titles will be available shortly. Order via Quarto or CD-ROM link.

Huguenot Families was launched in 1999 as a forum for research into genealogy and family history and was made available to both Fellows of the Society and members of the public.
