Are you enjoying springtime? Is home improvement on your to-do list?
Then take a look at the Florida Electronic Library’s Home Improvement Collection for access to articles on everything from landscaping and gardening to building a bookcase, plans included. You can even search through the most recent editions of magazines like “Timber Home Living”, “Architectural Digest,” “House Beautiful,” “Popular Woodworking,” and “Mother Earth News.”
The Home Improvement Collection puts the research of hobbyists and professionals alike on a solid foundation with more than five million articles from more than 200 home improvement-focused publications, covering topics including architectural techniques, tool and material selection, zoning requirements, and much more.
