Profiles Dr. Beard's career, discussing two books authored by him, Turfgrass: Science and Culture and Turf Management for Golf Courses. Describes Dr. Beard as "a world-renowned turfgrass scientist" and the Beard Turfgrass Collection as "the finest personal collection of turf-related material in existence. It includes international coverage of the turfgrass research and management literature contained in more than 30,000 books, periodicals, and technical reports." Concludes that "the arrival of the Beard Collection makes MSU the strongest public depository of turfgrass literature in the world." |
