Visitors

Welcome - Visitors are welcome to visit the Bebb Herbarium during normal hours of operation, Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. Please note our after-hours policy and that staff is often away from the herbarium. All visitors must check in with herbarium staff and must agree to follow herbarium rules before entry is permitted into the research collection housed in room 206. We ask all visitors to sign the Guest Register, which is located in the hallway next to the Goodman Foyer.

Tours - The herbarium conducts tours, although arrangements and appointments must be made in advance. For tour information and scheduling, please contact Ms. Amy Buthod at E-mail amybuthod@ou.edu or phone 325-1654.

Visiting Researchers - A special invitation to visit the Bebb Herbarium is extended to researchers and taxonomic specialists. To optimize your time in the herbarium, it is recommended that you contact the Curator or herbarium staff prior to your visit. Researchers who wish to pull their own loans must first obtain permission and make arrangements with herbarium staff.

Policy concerning 'Use of Collections' - It is the responsibility of visitors to the herbarium who use the collections to acquaint themselves with herbarium guidelines for use of the collections and the library. A summary of the 'Use of Collections' policy is posted in the herbarium.

Important Rules for Visitors - Two of the most critical rules for visitors are that food and beverage and unfumigated (living or dead) plant material are NOT allowed in the herbarium (room 206) at any time. Herbarium staff and the 'Use of Collections' policy should be consulted if there are questions concerning visitation and use of the herbarium.

Loans and Destructive Sampling - All requests for Loans and for Destructive Sampling of materials must be approved by the herbarium staff.
