===''The [[Augustan Omnibus]]''===
'''Proposal: The Society should reduce the publishing frequency of ''The [[Augustan Omnibus]]'' to annual; targeting 36 pages/issue minimum, until such time as the Society's finances and the rate of submissions are able to support an increased frequencyof the same minimum size.'''
To aid in fundraising, advertising is accepted. Historically, these have primarily been support ads from members, but there is also a history of commercial advertising of relevant products and services.To date, this has largely been a reactive program, with only occasional calls for ads, resulting in a fill rate insufficient to the need for filler copy. '''Proposal: The Society should establish an [[Advertising Manager]] under the auspices of the [[Finance Committee]] or [[Treasurer]] with a charge to ensure that sufficient ad copy is available for the layout needs of ''The [[Augustan Omnibus]]'', and that done, to maximize income.'''
===''[[Rosarum]]''===
===''A Continuation of Paget's ''Ancestry of the Prince of Wales===
This monumental effort has been published in 24 parts in various publications of both the Augustan Society and the [[Octavian Society]]. The author has stated that the next installment will be his last. It will take a substantial effort to scan, OCR, reformat, and publish. The result may run to perhaps 800 pages and require multiple volumes (more if the author continues to submit material).
'''Proposal: The Society should work to publish Germond's ''A Continuation of Paget's "Ancestry of the Prince of Wales"''.
'''Proposal: The Society should work to publish a new edition of ''The Little Manual of Heraldry'' that is better organized, more comprehensive, and in color throughout.'''
===''The [[Augustan Society Roll of Arms]]''===
The Society's program of [[Arms Registration]] is of limited value if those registrations are not made public in some way. The [[Online Armorial]] is one tool for this, but it is not the only one. It is also suitable to use published rolls as a general fundraiser, as has been done in the past.
'''Proposal: The Society should publish additional volumes of the [[Augustan Society Roll of Arms]] as registrations permit.'''
'''Proposal: The Society should reprint the first three volumes of the [[Augustan Society Roll of Arms]] in color.'''
'''Proposal: The Society should publish special rolls for [[Sub-Groups]] of the Society, such as the [[Noble Company of the Rose]], as those Sub-Groups request.'''
==Sales==
'''Proposal: The Society should obtain an email server that is tailored to the unique needs of the Society. This may be a commercial product, or a custom application running on a Society server.'''
The email server should support the current email addressing scheme, perform spam filtering, avoid looking like (or being) a source of spam, and encourage the creation of groups (such as Directors or members of various Study Groups).
If possible, it should also permit Headquarters to receive most mail in a common inbox accessible by all HQ staff who could either deal with each, or transfer it to another staffer more suited to respond. It must also allow for the storage of emails sent and received in a structured manner so that any staff member could research conversation threads without regard to who participated in them.
