Aviation Resource
Centre
Our
Aviation Resource Centre has approximately 2,500 books and over 10,000 periodicals
on aviation and aviation-related themes.
The books in the library form various collections which relate to
specific events, aircraft, organizations and personnel. Most of
the books and periodicals within the collection relate to members of the
Hall and to the aircraft and organizations which they belonged too. The
collection has grown over time mostly from donations from the public and
members.
IThe museum does not buy its resources, we will however,
graciously accept donations if we have determined in advance
that the book meets the Hall's mandate and, we do not already have
duplicates of that book. So, if you are interested in donating books to
the aviation resource centre, please e-mail to
cahf@telusplanet.net
or write to us with details about the book at the address below.
Perhaps
your book will enhance our resource centre and contribute to the preservation of
Canada
's aviation heritage.
The Aviation Resource
Centre is located within the Aviation Exhibit Hangar at the
Reynolds-Alberta Museum. It is non-lending library and is open during
museum hours.
* Official tax receipts
will be offered for material at fair market value. |
