The Society publishes a quarterly journal distributed world-wide, The Bryologist, which includes articles on all aspects of the biology of mosses, hornworts, liverworts and lichens; lists of current literature with world-wide coverage; book reviews; and news items about members and events. The first issue of The Bryologist was published in 1898, with the formation of the Society. A history of the editors of the journal is found in the archive.

In 1984 the Society began publication of an information bulletin called Evansia. The purpose of this small, quarterly publication is to make available articles of technical interest to amateurs and professionals, including articles on identification methods, floristics of North American localities, preliminary research results, and regional reports.
