It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear friend and colleague Juli Moll Gómez de la Tia, at the age of 74.
Juli Moll, an expert in toponomastics, was born in Mercadal in 1947. He graduated in Roman philology and focused his research on toponymy. He was editor of the Gran Enciclopèdia Catalana. Juli Moll made fundamental contributions to the establishment of Nomenclàtor Oficial de Toponímia Major de Catalunya (Official Toponymic Nomenclature of Catalonia) at the Cartographic Institute of Catalonia which has been collecting the toponyms of Catalonia since 2003 thanks to the involvement of Generalitat and Institut d'Estudis Catalans.
R.I.P.
