Dear all
We’re pleased to announce that the holdings of the Scottish Ornithologists’ Club http://www.the-soc.org.uk/our-headquarters/the-library/ have been added to Copac.
As the largest ornithology library in Scotland and one of the top collections of its kind in Britain, the George Waterston Library contains over 5,000 books, around 130 different journals and houses a unique and distinctive archive. The library aims, as far as possible, to be a complete repository of all material on Scottish ornithology. As such, it has a collection not just of books but of some fascinating diaries, photographs and letters from eminent Scottish ornithologists.
This wonderful resource also contains a range of non-Scottish ornithology titles including standard works on avifauna of all parts of the world, handbooks on identification, and works on bird behaviour and methodology.
The library has complete runs of the key British journals, all the main international periodicals and all the bird reports from Scotland, neighbouring English counties, Wales and Ireland.
To browse, or limit your search to the Scottish Ornithologists’ Club, go to the main tab on
