Illawarra Speleological Society (ISS)
Publications
The
Illawarra Speleological Society (ISS)
was founded in 1963, with Jim Goold as President and Bill Wilton as Secretary.
The Society has produced a number of different publications since founding.
Publications held by the ASF Library include 3 early Year Books, 3 Annual
Reports, the ISS Observer, and the current Newsletter. ISS is responsible for
the numbering and documentation of the Bendethera area.
ISS produces an
irregular Newslwetter, currently running at about 3 to 4 issues per year. There
was a large hiatus between 1987 and 1993 when the club was forced to become idle
due to difficulties obtaining insurance. An unofficial newsletter was issued on
revival (Vol 2 No. 5A, confidental and restricted to 6 copies), which contained
information about the Kimberly area and was (and remains) restricted due to
concerns about potential vandalism to delicate structures in the cave. The ISS
Newsletter has been produced in a digital only format beginning with Volume 17
in 2011.
