Lepidoptera in the Library

By Alex Mesadieu

Usually, hundreds of insects would not make a building better, but this is not the case with Hannon Library’s latest digital collection. Hannon Library has teamed up with students, researchers, and amateur collectors to create the Southern Oregon University Insect Museum—Butterfly Collection.

The digital collection displays over 300 butterflies from the Oregon and Northern California regions. Visitors to the library’s website can see every kind of local butterfly imaginable, from Anglewings to Tortoiseshells.

Whether you have a passion for nature, insects, or just love beautiful photos, check out this great new collection on our website.
