New Zealand Institute. Notice to Members. The publications of the New Zealand Institute consist of— 1. Transactions, a yearly volume of scientific papers read before the local Institutes. This volume is of royal-octavo size, and is issued about the 1st June of each year. 2. Proceedings, containing reports of the meetings of the Board of Governors of the New Zealand Institute and of the local Institutes, abstracts of papers read before them and of papers dealing with New Zealand scientific matters and published else-where, list of members, &c. The Proceedings are of the same size as the Transactions, and are bound up with the yearly volume of Transactions supplied to members. The Transactions and Proceedings are posted direct to members of the Institute from the Printing Office. For this purpose the Secretaries of the local Institutes must, before the 1st January in each year, forward a list of members, with addresses, to the Secretary of the New Zealand Institute, and see that it is corrected from time to time when necessary. It is the duty of members to inform the Secretary of their local Institute of any change in their address. 3. Bulletins. Under the title of “Bulletins” the Board of Governors hopes to be able to issue from time to time important papers which for any reason it may not be possible to include in the yearly volume of the Transactions. The bulletins are of the same size and style as the Transactions, but appear at irregular intervals, and each bulletin is complete in itself and separately paged. The bulletins are not issued free to members, but may be obtained by them at a reduction on the published price.
