Global Plants Database
Global Plants (formerly the JSTOR Plants Science beta) is the world’s largest centralized, community-
contributed database developed through a partnership— known as the Global Plants Initiative (GPI).
It aggregates type specimens online so the plant scientist can access collections at herbaria without
having to travel to the repositories where they are housed; or having to borrow them on loan. Online
access allows for better collaboration and communication among researchers. It also reduces the
physical handling of the types and thus reduces their wear and tear, or destruction or even complete loss
when in transit when on loan. Trial ends June 20th.
