Latest revision as of 14:08, 11 November 2023

In order to sell back issues, new and used books, subscriptions, insignia, and memberships, The Augustan Society, Inc., has set up an Online Store at <store.augustansociety.org>.

This store is presently located on a virtual server at the RimuHosting site in Dallas, Texas. Work is in (slow) progress to move this to the store function of our new web site (hosted by CitySoft).

The software that drives the current store function was custom written for the Society in 2011 by an individual contractor who is no longer available for support. As a result, there are a number of features that are sub-optimal, with no chance for improvement.

Administration of the data contents is managed through the administrative access port at <store.augustansociety.org/admin/logIn>. Note carefully the capitalization of the part after the last slash, as it must be correct. This will not be used on the new site.

The Login ID and Password are not given here due to security concerns; they are available to any Director or other appropriate officer on request from the Webmaster or Assistant Webmaster.


Contents

Augustan Society Publications

Many of these publications have had multiple titles over their lifespans. Careful decisions will need to be made about which titles to preserve and which to merge with others.

Augustan Society Reprints

Over 500 titles of reprints of articles from Augustan Society Publications (and a few others), organized by topic.

While there are a few Reprints with only one article, plans are to withdraw these from publication as the physical stock is exhausted.

New Reprints will be organized as requests seem to justify.
