April-June Silent Auction of 100 Donated Volumes

Some bookstore fresh, others well-used by their former owners, are all priced to sell, so support the NAWCC Library by placing your bids April 1st through June 30th. The complete listing of titles can be found in the April MART on pages.

Newly Revised Member Research Request Form

Our three separate member research request forms have now been replaced by only one much shorter, simpler form that can be used for submitting requests for researching a clock, a watch, a particular subject, or for requesting a particular article. Please see the December issue of THE  MART (p. ) or (NAWCC Web site link).  Please use this new form when submitting your research/article requests, as it makes it so much easier for our researchers when they can work from such a standardized form.

Scanning Charges Increase

Although our photocopying charges remain at 25 cents per page, plus postage, it has been necessary to increase our scanning charges to 50 cents per scanned page. Moreover, for scanning requests totaling four pages or less, the scanning charges will continue to be waived.

 Wish List

Please note that the NAWCC Library needs to keep on  receiving your Chapters’ newsletters, either via U.S. mail or electronically, as we are in the process of binding them and have discovered that not all Chapters have been sending them to us on a regular basis. Thanks.
