From MeritBadgeDotOrg

Each January, The Boy Scouts of America announces requirement changes. We know that many are changing again this year including: Architecture, Automotive Maintenance, Coin Collecting, Drafting, Emergency Preparedness, Engineering, Farm Mechanics, Indian Lore, Insect Study, Landscape Architecture, Lifesaving, Motorboating, Painting, Pottery, Radio, and Swimming.

See the 2009 Boy Scout Requirement Changes for details. All Merit Badge pamphlets have been reprinted with color photographs, diagrams, and covers effective August 1, 2008. The actual text and requirements, in most cases did not change from the previous editions.

The Auto Mechanics merit badge was replaced with badge Automotive Maintenance. Architecture and Landscape Architecture Merit Badges were combined into a single book.

We will continue to update pages and worksheets as more information becomes available. See the 2008 Boy Scout Requirement Changes for previous changes.
