Butler University, Friesner Herbarium (BUT)

The Friesner Herbarium digital collection project is a multiyear effort to link label information from our Indiana specimens with images in a searchable electronic format. Our goal is to increase access to, awareness of and use by all Indiana citizens of the valuable historical botanical information contained with the Friesner Herbarium.
