Ann Sanford Memorial Library
The VBAS Library is located on the first floor of the Wilhelm Angele Observatory and consists of one of the largest collections of astronomy related publications in the Southeast!
Follow this link to our library catalog: http://www.librarything.com/catalog/vonbraunastrosociety The catalog at LibraryThing is now complete, and even contains the checkout-status of books, now updated approximately weekly (it only lists the status, not the borrower, of course).
The LOWER search box specifically searches the VBAS catalog (do not use the upper search box, unless you want to search other libraries in LibraryThing). Please note the graphic below.
