Our celebration of the 175th anniversary of PalSoc continues and here, in part two, we speak to Dr Caroline Buttler, a palaeontologist from National Museums of Wales, and the first woman president of PalSoc. She tells us how PalSoc is changing to meet the needs of the palaeontological community in the 21st Century, and we discuss the place of scientific monographs in modern scientific practice. She also reflects on the slow pace of change when it comes to diversity in scientific societies, and the role that women have played in PalSoc since its formation.
