Accessing the Past 50 Years of the MGSA

The MGSA archives reside at the Princeton University Library. They are accessible to researchers who make arrangements with the Department of Rare Books and Special Collections. Some boxes, however, remain closed until a certain time limit has passed. For more information, please consult the Princeton University library catalog under “Modern Greek Studies Association archives” and especially the “finding aid”.

A brief history of the founding of the MGSA, revised on the occasion of the association’s 20th anniversary (1968-1988), is available here.

Here are the lists of members who have served as the JMGS editors, as MGSA Presidents and Executive Directors or as Executive Board members.

The programs of the MGSA Symposia of the past nearly five decades are available here.

The MGSA published its first, hard-copy Bulletin in June 1969. Several universities in the United States and Canada have included more than four decades worth of hard-copy issues of the Bulletin in their collections (1969-2011, ISSN 0047-7702, call No PA 1001.B84).
