Archived Newsletters
The Halifax Field Naturalists have published a newsletter, generally four per year, since its inception in 1975. David P. recently completed the electronic archiving of past issues as a contribution to the celebration of HFN’s 40th Anniversary in October of 2015. All issues except those for the most recent three years are available below.
Thanks to Bob and Wendy McDonald, Shirley McIntyre and Stephanie Robertson for making past issues available for this purpose.

These are searchable* PDF documents requiring use of Acrobat Reader. Click on the issue number to link to the PDF document. Depending on your browser version and how its configured, you may be able to read and search the documents directly in the browser; alternatively, you may have to first download a document and then open it.
*The searches may not be 100% accurate as all except the more recent issues were prepared by scanning print documents and then OCR processing them (using Adobe Acrobat Pro). However, it works pretty well.
