UCBA LIBRARY
http://www.librarything.com/catalog/ucba
We are working hard on building our library. Curiosity and knowledge are good compliments to our hand-ons beekeeping experiences. A constructive balance of knowledge, spirit and imagination will put a beekeeper in good stead, as all these pieces of the human relationship with nature come into play as we tend our bees. The above link is to the “ Catalogue List” page. You can see it in “Book Cover” style by clicking on the correct tab. The site is a little confusing at first, however very helpful to see what’s in our lending library. You must be a current member to borrow material for a one-month period, with take out and return occurring at the meetings. You can also add your reviews for the UCBA books from this website, and investigate the rest of the LibraryThing website as well. If you need the username and password to view they are both “UCBA”.
