This index reflects
the changes in the Upland Goose and the topics in the past 16 years. The
improvements
in computer based publishing have
made the reproduction of postal history items far easier; indeed colour
supplements have
greatly increased this aspect of the
publication. As well as postal history, shipping details and the life
and times of senders
or receivers of mail have been an
increased focus of the changing shape of the Study Group.
The index may be downloaded
in pdf form (the July 2011 version) below:
One of the most significant developments in the Study Group was the launch of a Research Fund, which will bear the name of the present Research Co-ordinator.
It was decided that awards from the Fund would be administered by the Chairman of the Study Group, the Editor of the Journal and the Research Co-ordinator. This sub-committee has drafted some basic rules – very much on the KISS principle – as below:-
AIMS: To encourage research within Falkland Islands and Dependencies Philately with the goal of publishing the information in the Upland Goose, as a supplement or monograph, or elsewhere.
COMMITTEE: Three people: The FIPSG Chairman; The Editor of the Upland Goose; The FIPSG Research Coordinator.
USE OF FUNDS: The fund will be used to help fund the publication of research within Falkland Islands and Dependencies Philately and will be awarded to projects rather than to people as such. Any one project can be awarded an amount up to a maximum of £200. The maximum amount may be changed by a unanimous committee decision. The committee has to be unanimous to award funds to a project. There is no minimum or maximum number of projects that could receive funds within a year. Some years could have none, others several.
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE FUND: Any FIPSG member or any other person may donate cash to the fund, but it is also possible to donate stamps, covers, postcards or any other items with a Falklands connection, which will be sold through a FIPSG auction (or another auction which the committee finds suitable) and proceeds from these sales will be added to the fund.
HANDLING OF THE FUND: The money in the fund will be handled by the
FIPSG Treasurer as a separate fund in the FIPSG accounts.
Members are encouraged to support this initiative - gifts in “kind” are just as welcome
as gifts of cash. The beneficiaries are the ultimately whole membership.
