Merit Badge Pamphlets
(Current as of May 13, 2009)


Current merit badge pamphlet and requirement revision dates are available online here. There is also a listing on the inside back cover of the Boy Scout Requirements book but there are sometimes errors and/or omissions in that listing. The online listing is more accurate.

The following pamphlets are available for borrowing (Eagle required merit badges are listed in bold face). Numbers in the "current" column indicate how many pamphlets are current according to the above requirement revision dates. Numbers in the "recent" column indicate how many pamphlets are not current per the above requirement revision dates, but are from within the last seven years (and may therefore be used to finish up partials dating from when the pamphlet was still current). Numbers in the "ancient" column are of historical interest only, and are provided for inventory completeness.

If you have any current or recent merit badge pamphlets you are finished with and want to donate to the troop so others have the opportunity to use them, please give them to the Troop Librarian at the next meeting!
