The Chris Mead Memorial Fund
Library Update
The Chris Mead Library is now completed. Thank you to
everyone who has so generously donated to this major project.
This library commemorates the life and achievements of
Chris, who worked tirelessly for the BTO for over forty
years - within the ringing unit, as an ambassador and
latterly the press consultant.

|
The library is now located on an impressive
mezzanine structure, which includes the librarian's office,
a lift, and work spaces to accommodate visiting academics,
scientists etc. Beneath the mezzanine is rolling storage
for almost 100 years of ornithological archives.
A major scanning project is still taking
place to digitally store a vast range of archive materials.
Further donations will assist us in the completion of this
vital project.
