Welcome to the North Jersey Orchid Society!

An Affiliate of the American Orchid Society

NJOS LIBRARY

The North Jersey Orchid Society has an extensive library of orchid books and periodicals. The library is located in an upstairs room at the Hanover Manor. If you are interested in seeing the library and borrowing a book, let her know. She will be happy to show you our collection. If you have an interest in a particular type of orchid such as oncidiums or cattleyas, we are sure to have a book on the genera. If you are interested in orchid culture, we will have information about that as well. Don't be shy, take advantage of our wonderful collection. Should you find that you have too many orchid books of your own, we welcome donations.

 

Ever wonder what was in our Library? Here's you chance to find out even before you come to the meeting. See something you would like to check out? Just let us know, either by email or at the meeting! 

 

List updated: May 2006

Books in blue are currently in library and can be borrowed.  Books in red are currently out.  Please make sure that any books you borrowed are returned when you are finished.
