The grant received for cataloging our [[Library]] collection is a great boon, but also a great burden, as we must divert manpower and attention to that project sufficient to justify the gift. Sadly, as generous as it is, it seems insufficient to support the rental of space outside the Consuls’ home. That said, it is a most worthy project that will return the efforts devoted many times over.
A small number of committees are doing good work at the speed appropriate to the situation. All could stand an infusion of additional active members. Our [[Main Website|Website]], poor though it is in many ways, is still doing more to attract new members, promote sales, and “show the flag” than even I expected.
Our [[Board]] is working effectively, and the changes to [[By-Laws]], [[Policies]], and Procedures ― including those of the [[Sub-Groups]] ― have made the workings of our Society more efficient, more just, and better suited to the world of the 21st century.
