==PART ONE - VISION STATEMENT==
'''We work to further chivalric values in society by the manner in which we conduct ourselves and our business.'''
==PART TWO - MISSION STATEMENT==
'''The Augustan Society, Inc. promotes the study and traditions of [[Chivalry|chivalry]], [[Genealogy|genealogy]], [[Heraldry|heraldry]], [[History|history before AD 1700]], and [[Royalty & Nobility|nobility]] by providing unique, high-quality resources, including a [[Library|library]], [[Communications|publications]], and [[Services]] for members and the public.'''
==PART THREE - ADMINISTRATION & INFRASTRUCTURE==
As the Society grows, there are fundamental needs which must be met. This list below includes a range of resources to develop and implement organizational infrastructure that have been identified as essential to the Society's growth and wellbeing.
<li>Identify subgroups of potential members, e.g: college history students, members of specific orders of chivalry, New England Colonial Genealogist</li>
<li>Research past programs, members, publications to analyze for success, new ideas, better understanding of membership interests and needs</li>
<li>The [[Omnibus Editor]] will be reaching out to Phi Alpha Theta, the national history honors society, for articles. This may prove a worthy model (positive or negative) for other such. [Note: Said editor has resigned, and the curremt editor is disinterestedThis task now transferred tot he President]</li>

<li>Advertising
<ol type="A">
<li>Replace printed Handbook with online wiki, allowing for fast updates and immediate distribution at trivial cost. [Done.]</li>
<li>Updates would be done on an as-needed basis. [[[Headquarters Staff]] conduct periodic edits, but support from officers and committees is needed.]</li>
<li>Link to Wiki would be regularly provided to all members, perhaps in the ''Augustæum'' and in the members section of the [[Main Website]]. [An alternate recommendation is that access be restricted to officers with a "need to know".]</li>
<li>Infrastructure to be developed by Bruce Metcalf. Updates to be entered by responsible volunteers. [Note: The infrastructure is here, now we need officers and chairmen to input or update their pages. Some technical help is still needed.]</li>
