While most member news is welcomed, notices that mention Orders of Chivalry, etc., that are not presently recognized by the Society will not be published.
 
Presently, the frequency is bi-monthly, and the size is four or six pages, as material submitted demands. Longer issues are possible. It is often accompanied by fliers, notices, and other publications, such as ''[[Rosarum]]'' or the [[Book Sale Flier]].
 
Regular features presently include:
 
* Announcements of new members, elections, appointments, honors, arms registrations, recognitions, and condolences;
* News of conventions, meetings, publications, fundraisers, and other programs;
* Help Wanted — an item advertising one particular post, not to be repeated for the following year plus one issue;
* Lists of donors to various campaigns, members of [[Sub-Groups]], or senior members;
* "Library Top Ten", a list of ten items from the Library catalog that one member feels are of interest (when one is submitted); and
* If four pages are not filled, an Editorial or Cartoon.
'''Proposal: The Society should work toward publishing the members newsletter on a monthly schedule, presuming sufficient funding and material enough for four pages are available.'''
'''Proposal: The Society should conduct a survey to test the level of interest in publishing the members newsletter electronically, and a decision made about the value of devoting the time needed to reformat (versus publishing as a PDF file).'''
Consuls have been authorized by a previous administration to conduct such an email survey, and may do so at their discretion unless authorization is withdrawnThe "Library Top Ten" is intermittent for lack They are presently looking to combine this with a [[Member Interest Survey]] under the auspices of submissions, as HQ staff felt it unworthy the [[Dean of their limited time. This could become an assignment for the Library staff (once they and the HQ staff aren't identical)Studies]].
