Hunt Institute for Botanical Documentation

This continuing COVID-induced closure to the public has given us the opportunity to put our publishing house in order. While we took a systematic approach to digitizing back issues of Huntia and the Bulletin, we have been more piecemeal in handling our other publications. During the summer we inventoried, archived, scanned and uploaded the rest of our out-of-print publications. A few publications that were published jointly have not been digitized because the rights are held by the co-publisher. Otherwise, if the publication is ours and we had a copy to scan, it is now on our Web site as a PDF for downloading. In the course of going through dusty boxes and disintegrating, acidic packing material, we found interesting artifacts of print publishing. With the development of desktop publishing software, it is easy to forget the laborious process that a book went through to get into print. We have added a few images of layouts, galley page proofs and image proofs to show the stages of publication. Visit our Out-of-Print Publication section to rediscover some lost gems.

And, yes, we remain closed to the public.
