What the COSP badge means
An item published in The Stoic Philosopher eJournal receives the badge because it comes from that publication. A text written or editorially assumed by the College also receives it.
A rare book written by someone else and merely referenced or preserved by COSP does not receive the badge. It remains visible in the collection with its own author and provenance.
