There are a number of holes in our collection that we are trying to fill, in order to complete periodical runs or book sets. The Northwest Philatelic Library is specifically seeking donations of the titles below. If you have a country-specific catalog that is five or less years old, please donate it to the collection. Or, “adopt” a country and purchase that country’s catalog for the collection. Or, make a financial contribution that can be pooled with like-donations for the earmarked Catalog Fund. Thank you!
