TitleLetter from [Edward] Frankland, The Yews, Reigate, to the Secretary of the Royal Society
CreatorFrankland; Sir; Edward (1825 - 1899); chemist
Date14 May 1895
DescriptionDiscussion regarding the publication of the Royal Society's Proceedings. Frankland comments on delays in the publication of paper sent to the Society, resulting in those papers being printed in full or abstract in other 'popular' journals 'long before their appearance in the Society's publications'. Frankland suggests a solution similar to the operation at the Chemical Society, to fortnightly publish 'short abstracts of all papers recieved and deemed by the officers worthy of publication at all'.
