James Smith Noel Collection

3rdfloor Noel Memorial Library, LSUS (on Youree)

Join us as we explore the thrill of the hunt and the quiet pleasure of angling with materials from the Noel Collection. Books on fishing from the years 1719-1919 and books on hunting once owned by Teddy Roosevelt are some of the items that provide a wide range of insights into the skill it takes to land a good catch. The beautiful illustrations captured on display within this selection of materials include ducks, quail, deer, foxes, and bears. Come and see what it takes to be a wild game hunter and an excellent angler.

We’re open Mondays -Fridays from 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m., with extended hours beginning in September. For more information or to arrange a tour contact Martha Lawler at 318-798-4163 or Martha.Lawler@lsus.edu, or visit us online at jsnoelcollection.org.
