The Royal Philosophical Society of Glasgow is a learned society established in 1802 "''for the improvement of the Arts and Sciences''" in the city of Glasgow, Scotland. It runs a programme of lectures, now in its 214th Series. The Society formerly owned a building on Bath Street, but since 1994 has been accommodated within the University of Strathclyde. ==History== The Society was founded in 1802 as the Glasgow Philosophical Society by a meeting of sixty people in the former Assembly Rooms, and work began establishing a library collection.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.royalphil.org/pages/history.xml )〕 The Society was housed in various short-term accommodation until 1831, when a room was made available in the Andersonian University (now the University of Strathclyde). The Society subsequently moved to the Corporation Galleries on Sauchiehall Street in 1868, and in 1880, in conjunction with the Institution of Engineers and Shipbuilders in Scotland, built new premises on Bath Street.〔 The Society was made a Royal Society in 1901,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://special.lib.gla.ac.uk/manuscripts/search/detailp.cfm?NID=14&DID=&AID=10209.0 )〕 shortly before its centenary, by Edward VII while Archibald Campbell, 1st Baron Blythswood was President. In 1961, the Society's building was sold and the library, which by that time contained over five thousand volumes, dispersed. The Society began renting lecture halls at the University of Strathclyde.〔 The archives of the Society are now maintained by the Archives of the University of Glasgow.
