My vision for the nobiliary activities of The Augustan Society, Inc., include:
==[[Royalty & Nobility Committee]]==
All activities of the Royalty & Nobility Department fall under the control of this Committee unless the [[Board]] or Chairman has created another Committee and charged them with responsibility.
===Recognition of ''Fontes Honorum''===
'''Proposal: The Society should maintain and publish the standards by which to judge ''fontes honorum'' to determine if they should be recognized by the Society.'''
'''Proposal: The Society should maintain and keep private a list of all ''fontes honorum'' that have been examined and found unworthy of recognition by the Society, along with the reasons for the decision.'''
===Recognition of Titled Nobility===
'''Proposal: The Society should maintain and publish the standards by which to judge if a claimed title of nobility is worthy of Society recognition, including such titles as may attach thereunto.'''
'''Proposal: The Society should maintain and publish a list of those individuals whose titles of nobility have been recognized by the Society.'''
='''Proposal: The Society should maintain and keep private a list of those individuals whose claim to titles of nobility have been examined and found unworthy of recognition by the Society, along with the reasons therefore.''' ==Recognition of Untitled Nobility===
'''Proposal: The Society should maintain and publish the standards by which to judge if a claim to untitled (or personal) nobility is worthy of Society recognition, including such honorifics as may attach thereunto.'''
'''Proposal: The Society should maintain and publish a list of those individuals whose untitled (personal) nobility have been recognized by the Society.'''
===Recognition of Gentility===
This is a very difficult issue, as it requires the Society to define "gentleman"; something this Committee has expressed great fear of attempting. It may prove an impossible task.
'''Proposal: The Society should maintain and publish a list of those individuals whose gentility has been recognized by the Society.'''
==Library Support==
The department, either through the main committee, a sub-committee, or a designated officer, will advise the [[Library]] in matters of accession, classification, and deaccession of materials on this subject.
==Article Solicitation==
The department, either through the main committee, a sub-committee, or a designated officer, will solicit articles on this subject for ''The [[Augustan Omnibus|The Augustan Omnibus]]'', in cooperation with the [[Omnibus Editor]].
