This guide provides an overview of the extensive ornithological collections in the libraries at Cornell University. Its intent is to offer students, researchers, and scholars sufficient information about the collections to assess the usefulness of those rich resources to their own studies or pursuits. It is not a title-by-title listing of the thousands of ornithology volumes at Cornell. That kind of detailed catalog is provided by national library databases and by the Cornell University Library Online Catalog. For a title-by-title listing of the Hill Collection, visit the online bibliography.
