Welcome to the Albion College Herbarium (ALBC) web site!
It is brand new as of 5 Aug 2014 and is currently under construction.
This web site is an outgrowth of a summer 2014 project by Matthew Kleinow, who received funding from Albion’s Foundation for Undergraduate Research, Creative, and Scholarly Activity (FURSCA) to digitize the herbarium and write a short paper on its holdings. Below is a pdf of a presentation he gave early in the project in June 2014.
