Herb Society members can borrow books from the Herb Society's Bev Lloyd Memorial Library at general meetings. Each year, all books are collected at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) which is held in June, and are then made available again for borrowing the following September.

If there is a specific book you are interested in borrowing, you can contact the Library Chairs by email at: herbsocietymb@mts.net to check on availability and arrange for that particular book to be brought to the next general meeting. Due to the increasing size of the library, not all available books are brought to each meeting. Emailing in advance ensures that the book you want to borrow, if available, is brought to the next meeting for you to borrow.
