I love Cornell’s site. I have some classic books online and they have been typed so they are more readable and searchable. In particular I did queen rearing books that I was having trouble finding at the time. When I finally found originals, I wanted to help others who might not find them…

You will find:
Jay Smith (both of his queen rearing books)
Isaac Hopkins (queen rearing from two different editions of his Australasian Bee Manual)
C.C. Miller
G.M. Doolittle
Henry Alley
François Huber

UC Davis has an excellent site.

Events are more for local Northern Californians, but there is a lot of content available on the site as well.
