Finding Books in the Library

The books on environment and nature are found in various places. For animals, look in the 590's. For plants, look in the 580's or the 635's. For books on the environment, try some of these numbers: 333, 363, 551, 574, 631, or 344 for environmental law. Here are some suggestions:

• Endangered animals series / Dave Taylor. J591.529 TAY
• Exploring plants / Ed Catherall. J581 CAT
• Environmental field guide To Australia's outback / Frank Haddon. 581.994 HAD

• Looking at the environment / David Suzuki with Barbara Hehner ; adapted for Australia by Jenny Dibley. J574.5 SUZ

More information can be found in the reference section. Look for the set of books on animals of Australia. Also, have a look at the book Plants of Western New South Wales for information on plants in the local area.

Remember, if you cannot find what you're looking for, just ask at the counter, and the librarians will give you a hand.
