The main website of The Augustan Society, Inc., is located at <https://augustansociety.org>. It is a turnkey system provided by <CitySoft>.

Management of the website is nominally assigned to the Webmaster. Access to edit the site may be delegated by function to any officer or committee chairman at need.

There is, at present, no written style manual for the site. The Assistant Webmaster has taken this on as part of their duties. Until contrary styles are adopted, copying the existing style is recommended.

This site also includes the working Roster for the Society and its Sub-Groups. Access to this has been granted to the Assistant Secretary and the Assistant Treasurer, as each is the lead worker on some aspect of the Roster.

This site also includes:

and once released for public use:

plus such other lists as the Society may elect to make public.

The User Guide provided by CitySoft is incomplete and obsolte. Thus two local guides have been written:

  • CitySoft User Guide—Common tasks with step-by-step instructions.
  • CitySoft Admin Guide—Being a rewrite of the CitySoft Guide that is more complete and accurate. This may take quite some while to complete, not even considering those features that are not yet functional.
