"Duke and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will combine their herbarium collections under the management of the North Carolina Botanical Garden, the universities announced Monday.
The arrangement ends two years of uncertainty over the fate of Duke’s 825,000-specimen herbarium collection, after the University said in February 2024 it could no longer afford to maintain the collection on its own."

I’m happy to present the twelfth title in my series of e-books designed for English language learners (and everyone who enjoys a good short story).
This one contains a non-fiction story “My Herbarium” by Anne Wales Abbot (1808-1908), originally published in her collection of prose and poetry works entitled "Autumn Leaves."
The e-book contains two pages of vocabulary exercises, as well as notes throughout the text, to help you with the more complex C1/C2 vocabulary.
