<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN">In the past few years there has been much interest in archival collections from natural history museums, herbaria, botanic gardens and university collections. Through the Council of Library and Information Resources (CLIR)
Hidden Collection Program much attention has been drawn to these invaluable resources for historical and scientific research and education. In many instances this documentation holds the clues to the legacy of our institutions, the history of our scientific
disciplines and records of biodiversity and global change. Abstract deadline is May 5, 2014. For more information about this session please contact Tim White (<a href="mailto:tim.white@yale.edu">tim.white@yale.edu</a>).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
