The Papers of the British School at Rome
From 2026, The Papers of the British School at Rome (PBSR) will be published by Open Book Publishers, the UK’s leading independent open access publisher in the Humanities and Social Sciences.
PBSR is an annual, peer-reviewed series showcasing original research and creative work on Italy, from prehistory to the present. Combining art, architecture, archaeology, and the humanities, it embraces both scholarly and practice-led approaches. The series highlights the innovative work of BSR staff and fellows, while welcoming submissions from scholars, artists, and practitioners worldwide. With diverse formats and media, PBSR is a dynamic platform for cross-disciplinary research and creative practice, enriching academic and cultural conversations across the UK, Italy, and beyond. Fully open access, it makes scholarship freely available worldwide, fostering global dialogue and cross-disciplinary exchange.
Past issues are available on JSTOR and Cambridge Core. Please contact BSR Programmes Manager Courtney Quaintance with any enquiries.
