Society Projects

Many of our members have varied interests in their collecting. As a Society some of our members are working together on common projects. One major on going project of the Society is the Checklist. Another project is the CP Index Project, described below.

If you have an idea for a project that you feel would be of interest to the other members of our Society, or are looking for other people to get involved with a project you are working on, please contact us and we can add your projects here.


CP Index Project

Work on the CP Index Project has somewhat slowed, but we are now considering how to get it progressing again.

Now that the complete original CartoPhilatelist Journals have been scanned and are available to members at a small cost, it is easy to obtain the entire set of original journals.

The original Carto-Philatelist Journals contain a weather of information and an index if available would be highly valued by both members and non-members alike. Contact us if you are interested in helping.

The CP Index project started as a personal project by one of our members, Mr. Dan Nelson. Dan has a number of original Carto-Philatelist Journals and has been going through those journals compiling an index of the articles and orther information.

The original CP Journals offer a wealth of information for research and informative reading.

The merits of having an index for the orignal CP Journals are easily understood and from discussions online with other members it was decided to start the CP Index Project Team (CPI-PT) and and for help from other members who may be interested in working on this.

The CPI-PT has made a list of CP Journals along with those journals in possesion by the team members. At this time, the CPI-PT is dividing work to members based on the journals which they have easy access to. This list is currently available here. Please check the list to see how you can contribute.

It was considered to first complete the index work for journals which team members personally owned. Later on, it may become necessary to consider providing copies (either in PDF or hardcopy) of older journals to CPI-PT members.

The structure of the index is very simple. This structure allows for easy compliation, input and use. The CPI-PT is using Microsoft® Office® Excel® for this task.
