Starting Thursday, June 17th, we will go to our longer, summer hours: 8:00am to 9:00pm, 7 days a week! Come in to find out about good birding spots and places to visit, browse our book selection, visit the beautiful gallery, or watch the Mono Lake Story slide show.

We also have some unique new items in the Information Center & Bookstore, from organic, handmade soaps to recycled notebooks.

If you are in town for the Mono Basin Bird Chautauqua this weekend, or if you are a bird lover here to do some birding on your own, come in and check out our wide selection of bird books—whether you want to identify local species or brush up on your knowledge of plumage, feeding habits, eggs and nests, or songs, we have the books to help you out!
