Collecting a Specimen

Join Collections Assistant, Matthew Chansler, at the Corey Marsh Ecological Research Center to collect some specimens! Whether it's for an herbarium or for your personal collection, Matt will take you through the processes of collection, arrangement, pressing, and drying. Don't have a press? No drying oven? No problem! In this video, we cover how you can collect with everyday tools as well as collection-specific equipment.
