Founded in 1956, the Ocean Liner Society is the oldest and most respected organization in the world dedicated exclusively to the history of passenger shipping. Based in London, the Society brings together maritime historians, enthusiasts, former seafarers, and collectors across the globe.
The Society publishes Ships Monthly, one of the world's foremost maritime journals, and maintains an archive of photographic and documentary material spanning more than a century of ocean travel. Its library holds one of the finest collections of passenger ship ephemera in private hands.
Through lectures, voyages, and an active online community, the OLS connects thousands of members who share a passion for the great liners that shaped the modern world.
