In 1968, the Society published a volume celebrating the centenary of the Royal Charter in 1867: A Century of Scientific Progress: The centenary volume of the Royal Society of New South Wales — a history of several aspects of Australian scientific development, with particular reference to New South Wales (Sydney, Royal Society of NSW, 1968).

* Nota bene: Owing to an unfortunate decision, the page numbers in Volumes 141, 142, and 143 are duplicated. The page numbers in the second issue of each of these years (issue 3-4) begin again from 1. An additional infelicity is that the cover sheet of each article does not include the issue number. For these three volumes, the pagination "141: (3-4) 22-30" means Volume 141, issue 3-4, pages 22 to 30.
