The Society's Slide Library at present contains the following six programs of color transparencies (35mm slides) three of which have delightful tape recordings and three with typescript commentary:

Propagation of Rhododendrons , with tape, by Mr. John Lofthouse

Species Rhododendrons in the Phetteplace Garden , with tape, by Dr. Carl Phetteplace

These programs are available to A.R.S. Chapters on request of their President or Secretary and are mailed via insured Parcel Post in Carousel trays. It is requested that the slides are not to be removed from the Carousel trays because of the possibility of damage in handling and/or loss.  The A.R.S. Board has established a fee of $5.00 a program and it is requested that the programs be promptly returned via insured Parcel Post.  Color transparencies (35mm slides) of member's or outstanding gardens, preferably with a tape recording, should be made available to the Library for all Chapters to enjoy and will be most gratefully received.
