• The Paleontological Society is a North American society of paleontologists that publishes the journals Paleobiology and Journal of Paleontology. Although geared towards professionals, The Paleontological Society also includes amateur members. • The Palaeontological Association is the primary paleontological society based in Britain. It publishes the journal Palaeontology and the Palaeontology Newsletter. • Geological Society of America, though not specifically a paleontology organization, includes many paleontologists. GSA publications include the journal Geology. • Society of Vertebrate Paleontology is a large society of vertebrate paleontologists that publishes the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology. There are many other professional and amateur societies and fossil clubs around the world, so it’s worth looking for an active organization where you live. You might also consider becoming a Friend of the UC Museum of Paleontology.
