Other than the British Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, produced by the Journal Department, production of Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists publications was initially the responsibility of a designated member of staff within the Administration Department. As the function expanded in importance with the establishment of a RCOG Press and a College Bookshop in 1993, a Publications Office was set up within the department; in 2000 this office became the Publications Department. The department is responsible for publishing RCOG Press volumes and serials.

In October 1998 the Publications Editor agreed to send one copy of all College publications to the College Archives for permanent retention. Some copies have also been transferred on an ad hoc basis from the College Bookshop and the Library.

Copies of Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Press Publications, 1993-2002, comprising publications and serials produced since 1993, namely RCOG Press miscellaneous publications, 1994-2002, including information pamphlets; The Yearbook of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1993-2001; The Diplomate, 1994-1999; RCOG Guidelines ("Green Top" Guidelines), 1994-1999; Evidence-based Clinical Guidelines, 1998-2001; Personal Assessment in Continuing Education (PACE) Reviews, 1997-1999; The Obstetrician and Gynaecologist,1999-2002.

For many years all publications transferred to the Archives were catalogued as part of the records of the creating department. Frequent administrative change, with consequent transfer of responsibility for publications from one department to another, has now made this method of classification impractical, so in 2001 it was decided that a separate series for publications produced since the formation of the RCOG Press in 1993 should be created.

Further accruals are expected.

The records are arranged as outlined in the scope and content.
