[va-bird] CCB and VSO release The Raven Online

["Bart Paxton" <bjpaxt@xxxxxx>]

Consistent with our respective missions to provide information on Virginia 
birds to the broader public, The Center for Conservation Biology in partnership 
with the Virginia Society of Ornithology announces the availability of a 
digital library of The Raven.  More than the scientific journal of the Society, 
The Raven chronicles the birds of the state, what is known about these birds 
and the history of the organization from its beginnings in 1930 to the present. 
 It is our hope that this fantastic resource will lead to greater exploration 
and protection of birds in our region.
 

The digital library includes text-searchable, PDF versions of 76 volumes of The 
Raven from 1930 through 2005.  This includes 510 individual issues and a total 
of 7,037 text pages.  The entire library is accessible on the Center for 
Conservation Biology's website http://www.ccb-wm.org with full instructions and 
searching "tips".  Thanks to Jess Mackow and Bart Paxton for all of their hard 
work in producing the library and making it available on the internet.  

 

In the future, the library will also be accessible through the VSO website and 
on DVD.  The Virginia Society of Ornithology is our bird organization in 
Virginia.  If you are not currently a member, please consider joining and 
becoming involved in whatever capacity is right for you.
