Jim Finger has been involved in the poultry industry for 35 years and in that time has collected a lot of literature on poultry. This generated a requirement for conservation of the collection and reproduction of selected historically important documents. This generated the desire to be able to do this work himself, and the desire to learn led to his involvement in the Guild. Jim doubles at present as the web master.
