The society has a large library of several hundred volumes of books, catalogues, cuttings etc which is generally available for research. Books may be borrowed within the United Kingdom. Postage both ways must be paid by the borrower. Publications One of the most active areas of the society is the publication of philatelic literature, ranging from definitive handbooks on major subjects down to monographs on very specialised topics.
All literature published is made available to members of the study circle at discounted prices.
Several of the society s recent publications have received high awards at national and international competitions. See the list of recent Publications for Sale. The study circle meets twice a year in London at the Royal Philatelic Society s premises in Devonshire Place. These events are usually in early March and November. An informal meeting is also held in Salisbury during July each year.
