> Hello everyone! > > I hope everyone is well and back to reality after a crazy few days in > Leeds. As I said I would at the conference, I am writing to you > because Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery are researching the > possibility of publishing a book based on what we have discovered > from our 18th century herbarium. We have been undertaking a project on > this collection since January 2008 and have unearthed some fascinating > finds. The most intriguing of which are the descriptions on how to > use some of the specimens for medicinal and domestic purposes. Rather > than to have this information hidden in our stores, we have created an > online herbarium (www.plymouth.gov.uk/staubynherbarium) for everyone > to see. However, recently we have felt that it would be more > accessible to present this information in a book format as well. > > We would be really grateful if you could fill in the attached > questionnaire. It should only take 5 minutes (maximum) to fill out. > > Thanks for your time, > > Jess > > <<Uses of plants in the 18th century questions.doc>> > > Jess Shepherd > Natural History Project Assistant > St. Aubyn Project > Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery > Drake Circus > Plymouth > PL4 8AJ > Tel: 01752 30 4774 > W: www.plymouthmuseum.gov.uk > > The views expressed in this message are personal and must not be > considered to be the official views of Plymouth City Council. > > IMPORTANT: this e-mail and any attachments are confidential and are > solely intended for the above named addressee.
