They are not generally available through the library committee. An interesting
area for consideration is a publication of a list of, or abstracts of
pertinent killifish articles from both hobbyist and scientific sources. I know
many people (myself included) do not have access to university sources, nor
are there other ways for the hobbyist to know what's going on. Roger Langton
has done a great service by documenting wild collections in his booklet. A
similar publication of abstracts of articles would be most useful. Who would
be a person or persons with such access? If abstracts are provided, there
could also be a source guide for the complete articles for those interested.
Just an idea that I would pursue if I knew how to do it.
