In 1980, the group was incorporated in Quebec, Canada under the name International Conferences on Calcium Regulating Hormones.
In 1995, the name was changed to IBMS and it was registered as a 501(c)(3) organization with headquarters in Washington, D.C., United States. IBMS holds annual scientific meetings and publishes the scientific journal Bone. IBMS also publishes IBMS BoneKEy, an open access website. BoneKEy Reports is the official online journal of the society.
