From 1973 to 1998, the
Society published its own micropalaeontographical series: A Stereo-Atlas of Ostracod Shells, (first
produced in 1973, edited by Professor Peter Sylvester-Bradley and Dr
David Siveter of Leicester University), it also produces an occasional
series of field guides.
The BMS produced a circular
until 1976, when the Newsletter was inaugurated, as The British
Micropalaeontologist, first edited by P.J. Bigg. The newsletter was
renamed Newsletter of Micropalaeontology
in 1995. The first BMS publication (apart from the A
Stereo-Atlas of Ostracod Shells) was A Stratigraphical Index of
British Ostracoda (edited by Ray Bate and Eric Robinson) which
appeared in 1978 and was published as a Special Issue of Geological
Journal. Subsequent volumes have been published as a Special Publications Series,
commencing with the Stratigraphical Atlas of Fossil Foraminifera
(edited by Graham Jenkins and John Murray) in 1980. These are available
to TMS members at discounted rates.
The year 1982 is a milestone
in Society history as this saw the initiation of the society's own
journal, the Journal of Micropalaeontology,
(first edited by Lesley Sheppard). The Journal was initially produced
once a year, but since 1984 has become a twice yearly publication of
growing international repute. The editor and the editorial board will
consider for publication original papers and review articles dealing
with all aspects of Micropalaeontology.
