eBotanical Prints – July 2024
/Twenty more books were added to my botanical print book collection in August - available for browsing on Internet Archive and the Natural History Museum Library (London). I discovered that most of the volumes scanned by the NHML are available on Internet Archive and listed in the collection page for the library; I am more comfortable browsing books that way; however, these books would be harder to find in the Internet Archive outside of the collection list because they do not have ‘topics’ metadata. I was surprised at how many books I’d missed entirely. All 20 additions this month were scanned by NHML.
The whole list of 2,943 botanical eBooks I’ve browsed over the years can be accessed here. Click on any sample images below to get an enlarged version…and the title hyperlink in the list below the image mosaic to view the entire volume.
