A new website gives access to digitised books and journal content related to Malta’s natural heritage.
The online repository, www.naturalheritagemalta.org, is a pilot project run by Nature Trust, Birdlife Malta and Projects in Motion Ltd.
Literature on the subject has been published in large volumes but has limited distribution.
It is mostly restricted to the few who can gain access to hard copy in libraries or private collections.
The repository offers a collection of past local journals and ad hoc papers that capture the romance of the Maltese natural environment but remain scientifically valid to this day.
