    Virtual Library Now Free to AMCA Members

    Dear All, the recent Davenport Board meeting accepted the decision of our Library Committee that the Virtual Library be free to AMCA Members.

    Larry Barnes, our virtual librarian, is writing a procedure so that smaller collections and individual documents can be submitted to the Library, for which donors will get credit. Please check out what is currently in the Library, see what you have in your own collection, and consider scanning documents to fill in the gaps. We have plans to add other items to the Library, such as photos of Winners' Circle bikes, videos and so on, and you should start to see these over the coming months.

    To non-members reading this Forum, here's another good reason to join the AMCA! For the price of a shop manual or so, you can receive four excellent magazines per year, vend at swap meets, go on Road Runs, have free access to the library, and enjoy the many other benefits of our great Club.

          Huzzah !!

          A Wonderful decision, and a shining new jewel for the AMCA. Benjamin Franklin would be proud of this egalitarian position.

                Now I will seriously consider donating scans of any of my stuff. I wasn't going to if other members were forced to pay for it! Good decision Board Members!

                              OK, I'll bite and ask the FNG question, where is the library located?
                              Thanks,
