Odum Library has received a large collection of books about snakes, frogs, and turtles from Dr. H. Bernard and Elizabeth Bechtel.

Check out our display of books and actual snakes (preserved in jars) from the Bechtel’s personal collection, on the library’s first floor, down the stairs from the main Circulation desk.
