CNAH
PDF Library: 1864
titles available
The Center
for North American Herpetology, recognizing that the future of
our profession is dependent on a blending of old technologies with new,
has created the CNAH PDF Library. The library
is searchable by author, year date, and title. Users can read and/or print
a title using Adobe Acrobat Reader. This permits herpetologists to download
and print only those titles that interest them. Titles added to this list
will generally be those that deal with the North American (north of Mexico)
herpetofauna; however, appropriate titles dealing with higher level taxonomy
will be listed regardless of geographic coverage. CNAH
is pleased to make available this academic service to herpetologists for
the first time in the history of our profession.
