Handbook of the Birds of the World Volume 16

[John Leonard <>]

And can someone explain why volumes like these are are still being produced
as physical volumes? I would buy them if they were available as CD ROMs or
as acess to a website where the infroamtion was, but I haven't the space to
store huge volumes like these.

(And also why hasn't anything been done about turning HANZAB into CD-ROMs
or a subscription website yet?)
