The Journal Editorial Board was constituted in 2019, since when biannual meetings have occurred. These are the Minutes for the Meetings. Much of the decision-making about the administration of the Journal has historically been undertaken by the Publications Committee of the Society. The Minutes for the committee have also been catalogued.

Also included are the Minutes of the Nomination Committee for the Associate Editorship Positions at the JRAS for 25 June 2020.

Most administrative documents are only kept during their working life. These documents have been deemed as of potential archival value. They are:
