GB 0117 JBC 1660-1826 Collection (fonds) 43 volumes Royal Society

The Journal Book Copy was transcribed retrospectively in the early eighteenth century, and then regularly to the early nineteenth century, for the purpose of greater security.

The Journal Books exist in Original and Copy versions. They contain minutes of the ordinary meetings of the Royal Society, setting out the following information; person in the chair, news of elections to the Fellowship and the Council, non-Fellows given leave to be present, and books and rarities presented to the Society. Letters and Papers read before the Society are given in abstract with any subsequent discussion By the nineteenth century much of this earlier detail had been lost, so that, for example, only titles of papers are recorded. This copy version is a transcription of the Journal Book Original.

The Secretaries minutes of meetings (MSG/557-574, 18 volumes, 1662-1761) and rough minutes (MSG/575-579, 1685-1711 and MSG/799, 1776-1778, one box) were written up to form the Journal Books. The Journal Books (and Council Minutes) for the period 1660-1687 were printed by Thomas Birch in the 'History of the Royal Society' (London, 1756-1757). An index to the proper names in Birch by G.E. Scala was published in 'Notes and Records of the Royal Society of London' Volume 28, No. 2 (1974). The Journal Book Original is available on microfilm from University Publications of America.
