The A.B.E.A. Lending LIbrary
 
The ABEA Lending Library is a collection of material that is available to all members. The material has been donated by teachers and members and is a valued resource particulary now that Matsuhato is reducing the size of the color picture accompanying the kits.
 
If you wish to borrow material you must become an ABEA member.
 
A $50 U.S. deposit is required for all originals of full color photographs,thread charts and/or difficult to replace materials if lost. The $50 will be refunded, less any shipping costs on return of the material.
Any profit made by the Lending Library will be used to offset the cost of the Annual ABEA seminar.
All fees are at the discretion of the Librarian depending on her evaluation of the value of the requested materials. Currently, to cover copying, email and postage all other materials will be sent for $5 U. S ( non refundable).
When possible, Black/White materials will be sent by email in .pdf format.
