Current Survey of Reference Sources in Botany

Abstract

Botany continues to be a popular publishing area for reference books that range from manuals on experimental biochemical methods to guides for studying and identifying the flora of regions, counties, and parks. In an attempt to reduce the voluminous amount of literature to manageable size this survey will focus on botanical reference works published during 1977–78 that are suitable for academic libraries. Applied areas such as agriculture, horticulture, and forestry are not included; the numerous regional guides or keys to flora are not noted here unless they have more than provincial importance.
