Philip Lee Phillips Society
The Philip Lee Phillips Society has been established to further
develop, enhance and promote the collections of the Geography
and Map Division by encouraging financial donations to supplement
appropriated funds for the acquisition of rare maps; stimulating
interest among map collectors, map producers, geographers,
cartographers, and historians in order to make the vast resources
of the nation's premier cartographic and geographic collections
more widely available; facilitating gifts and bequests of
significant geographic and cartographic materials in order
to further develop its collections; and advancing the Geography
and Map Division's publication, education, and exhibition
programs.
The Society is named in honor of Philip Lee Phillips
(1857-1924), the first Superintendent of Maps when
the Hall of Maps and Charts was established in
1897.
