Notice for Visitors to the New York Botanical Garden

[Barbara M. Thiers]

     Notice for those planning to visit the New York Botanical Garden
     Herbarium between May 1999 and October 1999

     Beginning in May or June 1999, the entire Herbarium will be moved to
     the new Plant Studies Center, with the Fungi, Cryptogams, and
     Monocotyledons being moved first.

     The Herbarium will be available for use during most of this period,
     but there may be times when some areas will be closed for up to two or
     three weeks.   For this reason, we urge you to first check the New
     York Botanical Garden Herbarium web site
     (http://www.nybg.org/bsci/herb/herb.html) for updates and then contact
     one of us prior to visiting the Garden to be sure that the specimens
     you want to study are available:

      Patricia K. Holmgren (pholmgren at nybg.org), Director of the Herbarium

     Jacquelyn A. Kallunki  (jkallunki at nybg.org), Assistant Director of the
     Herbarium

     Barbara M. Thiers (bthiers at nybg.org), Senior Administrative Curator,
     Cryptogamic Herbarium
