These materials represent just a taste of the INHS Library's extensive ornithology materials collection, and are available for immediate checkout. For additional bird materials, browse our books area at Dewey 598. Looking for something in particular? Contact us (library@inhs.uiuc.edu, 333-6892).

Wildlife damage resources digitized

The Internet Center for Wildlife Damage Management has scanned and posted the first 16 volumes (1962-1994, plus indexes) of the Vertebrate Pest Conference Proceedings.

The center's announcement states: "This is the longest running animal damage control conference in North America, and the proceedings contain valuable information on the management of a variety of vertebrate species."

Additional wildlife damage resources are also available on the Center's
Digital Commons site (scroll down to browse the list of collections).
