Join the TORCH Listserv for meeting updates and more!
The TORCH Listserv, TORCH-L, is a general-purpose forum for those with an interest in the care, management, digitization, conservation, and use of herbaria, and collecting herbarium specimens, in the two-state region. The intent of this list is to foster communication across our region. To see the archive of prior postings please visit the public TORCH-L Home Page and Archives.
Since 2023, TORCH-L has been hosted by the University of Oklahoma. Membership is open to anyone with an e-mail address; all individuals are welcome. Please use this list to share ideas, questions, and opportunities relating to your experiences in herbaria and herbarium specimen collecting in our two-state region. We depend on members be courteous, inclusive, and concise.
Only subscribers may post a message to all the list members; to post a message to all the list members, send your email to TORCH-L@LISTS.OU.EDU. For issues with the Listserv, please contact Abby Moore, abigail.j.moore@ou.edu.
