The Augustan Society, Inc., has as one of it's [[Mission Statement|mission]] objectives the creation and maintenance of a [[Library]]. This Library is under the direction of a '''Librarian''', who is appointed by and serves at the pleasure of the [[President]].
Duties include:
* Selecting items to add or remove from the collection, giving due deference to recommendations of committees, study groups, and patrons;
* Soliciting donations of members' collections;
* Naming an [[Assistant Librarian]] (Library Committee Vice-Chairman) within his first year in office(presuming a qualified and willing volunteer can be found locally); and
* Such other activities as seem necessary to improve and maintain the Library and the collection.
While it is desirable that the Librarian have a degree in either Library Science or Information Science, this is not a requirement. Those without a relevant degree may choose to style themselves "Library Director" or "Library Chairman" instead.
