The Swiss Society of Genealogical Studies is a non-profit association which is committed to researching descent relationships within families (see genealogy). The SSGS was founded in 1933 as an umbrella organisation. It coordinates the interests of the field on a national level and is also a member of the Schweizerische Gesellschaft für Geschichte. In addition to a library and archive, the SSGS also runs a reference desk and a bookshop, publishes a yearbook and organises specialist events.

The first SSGS Information bulletin appeared in 1974, the title was changed to Mitteilungsblatt in German in 1995. In 2014, the SSGS published its last printed Bulletin, since then it has sent out its communications as an e-mail newsletter.
