UWO SLA Winter 2019 - Herbarium Tour

The Western Special Libraries Association has been busy this academic year with interesting library tours around London. We recently toured the Western biology department's Herbarium which is somewhat of a hidden gem on campus. The Herbarium preserves, arranges, and keeps records of thousands of pressed plants. They have an extensive collection specializing in plants and flowers that are represented across southwestern Ontario.

Here are some photos from the tour:
