[cobirds] ABA's "Thank You, Colorado!" Open House, Sat., Aug. 9th

Good morning, everyone.

 

I would just like to add a few words to Ted's message. As an ABA office volunteer for a little over five years, I have had the opportunity to catalog over 2000 books in our library. Sometimes I was greatly distracted by the temptation to look through and even read many of the books, instead of merely labeling and shelving the often beautiful, always informative volumes.

 

At the Open House on August 9th, you will have the opportunity to comb through hundreds of books that will not make the trip to Delaware. We have tried to put the books in sections that will make it easy for you to scan. You can find books by:

1. State & Country – including field guides, where to bird books
2. Species (e.g. Owls, Shorebirds, Raptors, etc.)
3. Kids books
4. Coffee Table books (most are just plain gorgeous)
5. Scientific tomes
6. Novels and non-fiction prose

In short, there is something for everyone! If you have questions, please let me know.
