SGS Books and Other Publications
In addition to our semi-annual Journal of the Seattle Genealogical Society and eNews, the Society occasionally publishes books of records and subjects relevant to genealogical research. These publications are available to SGS Library patrons. Most SGS publications are also available for purchase at the SGS Library or through the online store. These publications are written, edited, and published entirely by Society volunteers. If you have an idea for a publication that would benefit the Society and the genealogical community as a whole, please contact our Director of Publications at publications@seattlegenealogicalsociety.org .
