DESCRIPTION:An herbarium is the home for botanical research specimens with
 in the natural history collections community. Herbaria traditionally hous
 e specimens\, and related items\, from across all areas of “botany\,” bot
 h living and fossilized. In today’s view of life\, this includes plants\,
  fungi\, brown algae\, red algae\, and some bacteria and amoeba. The biol
 ogical diversity across the tree of life in any given herbarium may be ex
 ceptionally high\, and complicated to manage.\nThis webinar will provide 
 an overview on herbarium collections. This includes covering the broad ra
 nge of taxonomic organisms that may be housed in a traditional herbarium 
 and what some of the storage options are for their many forms. Some basic
  schemes of organization and what a taxonomic revision means for collecti
 ons will be discussed. We will briefly touch upon assessing material for 
 incoming accessions and basic permitting guidelines. A list of some of th
 e critical resources for understanding and maintaining these collections 
 will be provided and gone over\, and digitization will be touched on brie
 fly. Lastly\, we will talk about collections risk related to pest infesta
 tions and suggestions on integrated pest management strategies.\nFor more
