The Publications Committee of the Royal Society of Tasmania oversees the production and quality of the Society’s scholarly publications, including the Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania. It ensures editorial standards, peer review integrity, and relevance of content. The committee plays a key role in preserving and disseminating research, historical records, and intellectual contributions aligned with the Society’s mission.
The Royal Society of Tasmania acknowledges, with deep respect, the traditional owners of this land, and the ongoing custodianship of the Aboriginal people of Tasmania. The Society pays respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that Tasmanian Aboriginal Peoples have survived severe and unjust impacts resulting from invasion and dispossession of their Country. As an institution dedicated to the advancement of knowledge, the Royal Society of Tasmania recognises Aboriginal cultural knowledge and practices and seeks to respect and honour these traditions and the deep understanding they represent.
