Global Philatelic Library Now On Line

The Postal News Blog reports, The Smithsonian’s National Postal Museum has announced the launch of the Global Philatelic Library website, a centralized information gateway to the world’s greatest philatelic research.

According to the post, founding partners include the National Postal Museum and Smithsonian Libraries in Washington, D.C., the Royal Philatelic Society London and the American Philatelic Research Library in Bellefonte, Pa.

The post goes on to say, "This ambitious project has become a present-day reality thanks to the inspiration and dedication of the founding partners. The website establishes a single destination—a responsive centralized gateway—by which philatelists around the world can search, locate and access philatelic research from partner libraries in real time, from any computer. Searchable listings of books and publications, as well as resource locations and access, are now just a click away, providing invaluable resources to those doing philatelic research."

Some of the items that can be found in the Global Philatelic Library include a world-class collection of printed, electronic and other media as well as an "Anthology of fascinating, informative and sometimes even scandalous articles written throughout the past century about philately and some of the people involved in its history."
