WAS IST DIE HAG-BIBLIOTHEK ?

Die HAG-Bibliothek ist die speläologische Bibliothek der Höhlenarbeitsgemeinschaft Schwäbisch Gmünd.Sie wird im wesentlichen von H.D.Gebauer betreut und erweitert.In ihr finden sich Zeitschriften aus nationalem und internationalem Schriftentausch im Austausch mit dem Abseiler und den früheren Mitteilungen der HAG.Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt ist speläologische Fachliteratur , vor allem über karstkundliche Berichte im asiatischen Raum.Der Bestand der Bibliothek vergrößert sich laufend und gehört sicherlich in ihrem asiatischen Bestand zu den umfangreichsten in Süddeutschland.
