The Library


The Association maintains a library of books and magazines, any of which

would be helpful to beekeepers and those interested in bees.

The library is open during association meetings.

Materials may be borrowed by members.

Association members can also borrow books from the Lancashire and North West Beekeepers Association by contacting Geoff Norris on 01772-497726. A list of books can be found by going to http://website.lineone.net/~jmrah_smith/Lancs/LancsBeeLibrary.htm
