International Biodeterioration and Biodegradation Society (IBBS)
The International Biodeterioration and Biodegradation Society (IBBS) is a learned scientific society with a worldwide membership coming from academia and industry. Its aims are to promote the sciences of Biodeterioraion and Biodegradation by means of international meetings, conferences and publications. It began as the Biodeterioration Society. The draft constitution of the Society was agreed in 1969 and the first annual general meeting was held on 9th July, 1971[1]. The aim of the Society was to promote the science of Biodeterioration, which is defined as any undesirable change in the properties of a material caused by the vital activities of living organisms[1][2]. The first Biodeterioration Symposium was held prior to the inauguration of IBS, in Southampton, UK, in 1968. A copy of the abstracts is available at [2]. The Second International Biodeterioration Symposium, and the first to be held under the auspices of the newly-formed Society, was held in Lunteren, The Netherlands, in September, 1971[3]. The Third International Symposium, held at the University of Rhode Island, USA, in 1975, was designated the "Third International Biodegradation Symposium"[4], this being the more recognized word in the USA. It was not until the 8th Symposium, however, in Windsor, Ontario, in 1990[5], that the term was reintroduced. Since then, all triennial events have been entitled "International Biodeterioration and Biodegradation Symposia" and the Society adopted the word into its name, becoming the International Biodeterioration and Biodegradation Society, or IBBS. IBBS is a charity registered in the UK. It has an executive body, the Council, with elected honorary officers[3], which meets three times each year. The Honorary Scientific Programme Officers collaborate on the organization of conferences and small meetings suggested by members. A Newsletter[4] is produced under the aegis of its Honorary Managing Editor and emailed to members three times each year. IBBS has no physical headquarters, any physical records and publications being kept by Council members. Back issues of the Society's first publication, International Biodeterioration Bulletin (1965-1986, now discontinued) have been converted into digital format and made freely available on the website[5]. In 1987, the Society agreed with Elsevier that the journal "International Biodeterioration and Biodegradation" (ISSN 09648305) would be published by them and acknowledged as the Official Journal of IBBS. Reduced subscriptions are available to IBBS members. The Society is a member of FEMS (Federation of European Microbiological Societies)[6]. The Society offers a range of bursaries and grants, generally valued at up to £1000[7], but under continual revision. The last International Biodeterioration and Biodegradation Symposium was held in Manchester, UK, in September, 2017. The next will be in Bozeman, Montana, USA, in September 2020. Information can be found on the Society's Twitter feed, @ibbs_online.
