THE
LIBRARY
It
is probably the largest philatelic library in Greece, with a plethora of
titles, which have not been electronically recorded yet. It is
continuously enriched with new books, periodicals, catalogues, after
selective purchasing or exchange. It includes the philatelic libraries of
George Photiades, Pandelis Drossos and Vassilis Arapoyiannis.
Philatelic
sections in other libraries, except of course the National Library, one
can find in the Library of the Parliament and in Gennadios Library.
The
Library is operating as a lending library only for H.P.S. members, but
anybody is welcome to visit it, ask for information and make use of the
photocopying service.
The
National Center of National Documentation has granted to the H.P.S. the
electronic library-keeping system AVEKT 400 and we hope that we start
using it soon and record the full contents of our Library and make them
available on our site.
