Biography or history
These regular publications are now discontinued, but the Society still sponsors occasional publications, and maintains the traditions of publishing annual reports on its activities. There is a full set of these reports in the University’s Special Collections, where the Society’s archive is now deposited so that it is publicly accessible.
The Society organises a programme of public lectures each year, across the full range of its interests in the sciences, arts and humanities, and awards grants to groups, societies, and individuals, focusing on those whose projects have a particular connection with Leeds.
A history of the Society, based on a study of its minute books, was written by Edwin Kitson Clark and published in 1924 under the title The History of 100 years of life of the Leeds Philosophical and Literary Society.
