Dedicated section on books?

Post by CoronaCactus »

What do you all think about a dedicated section on books?

While alot of our research and cross-referencing is done on the internet, there are a ton of worthy books out there.

Would tie in nicely with Daiv's current book reviews.

Thoughts?

You mean like the "Grown From Seed" "Grafting" "General" and then "Cactus Books"?

I think perhpas it should be more than just books. Books, websites, periodicals, and news - the article that Peter just posted could go there. It would also alert new members to the CSSA - which they should join - as well as BCCSS, etc.
