Not covered are works not specific to Ohio, or publications concerning game propagation and introductions of alien species. Out-of-print volumes mentioned are on the shelves of good libraries, and increasingly on the Web. Key words (for example, localities, authors, English names of species) may be searched here. Every effort has been made to include all pertinent sources, but such a bibliography must remain a work in progress. The compiler would be grateful to hear from readers who have corrections or additional entries to suggest. After my labors thus far I am moved to offer my profound gratitude to bibliographers of the past, as well as to librarians of the present. This document incorporates bibliographic entries from Gerrick 1968, which in turn incorporates those of Osborn 1930. Users of this list will welcome the news that SORA has been been made available to the public at http://elibrary.unm.edu/sora/ by the University of New Mexico library; this searchable site offers downloadable copies of older back issues of the Auk, the Wilson Bulletin, and more than ten other important ornithological journals.

    Welcome to the 2019 Edition of the GOBA Digest! the Intent of This

    elcome to the 2019 edition of the GOBA Digest! The intent of this publication is to highlight historical, unusual, and otherwise interesting places, people, and things as you ride the Great WOhio Bicycle Adventure. Before diving in, a quick history of the digest itself: In 1991, Tom Barlow, the original Event Director had included a bit of information about the days’ routes along the map margins. An “anonymous” commenter said they enjoyed the information but craved more. Tom recognized the commenter’s handwriting as belonging to Julie Schmitt and he recruited her to do to first “Global GOBA”. Julie Schmitt has been the author of the digest ever since then. Julie says, “Since the Ohio Department of Development had given seed money to help jump start GOBA and the goal was to feature the smaller communities in Ohio, it was only natural to try a get a bit more intimate with the landscape. As a new rider, and an Ohio skeptic (I loved Wild, Wonderful West Virginia with its white water rivers and stunning mountains), GOBA really helped me foster a love for Ohio and I feel like I am now one of its most fierce champions.” Julie continued: “I have seen the decline in Ohio’s small towns from lack of employment, and changing farming practices. Gone are the smaller farms and along with that, the fence rows that fos- tered a number of plant and animal species, broke up the landscape and may have helped to moder- ate daily temperatures. Now we have to frequently seek shelter on GOBA from heavy rains and strong winds.” The Digest, like the tradition of GOBA itself, is one that is cherished by all riders.
