The Burroughs Bibliophiles is a non-profit literary society dedicated to stimulating interest in and preserving the works of the great American author, Edgar Rice Burroughs:  “The Grandfather of American Science Fiction.”

The Burroughs Bibliophiles is an international organization with headquarters at the Burroughs Memorial Collection in Louisville, Kentucky, where the magazine and newsletter are published and where the board of directors makes plans.

The official publications of the organization are The Burroughs Bulletin - a glossy magazine published quarterly -- and the Gridley Wave -- a monthly newsletter.

The Bibliophiles hold an annual convention in a different location each year. They have christened this event a “Dum-Dum,” named after the meetings of the anthropoid apes described by Burroughs in his Tarzan novels. 

A complete history of the Bibliophiles by George T. McWhorter is featured in ERBzine 0148.
