"A High-Density Storage System for Mycological Herbarium"

宾夕法尼亚州立大学的真菌标本馆包含了大约67,500个真菌和锈菌标本，大部分来自西半球。这些收藏是宾夕法尼亚州立大学教职员工75多年来积极研究真菌的结果。这些藏品已经转移到该大学的阿尔托山校区，现在由C·B·沃尔夫博士负责策展。沃尔夫博士建议对这些藏品进行清点，并将其安排在新的紧凑型储藏柜中。将藏品转移到阿尔托山校区意味着它的继续使用和高素质策展人的监督。这一重要的资源将继续提供给研究界，宾夕法尼亚州立大学系统将继续实施真菌学方面的积极培训计划。像这样的自然历史收藏是关于世界生物群的不可替代的信息来源。未来的研究取决于它们的持续增长和适当的照顾。

The Mycological Herbarium of the Pennsylvania State University contains approximately 67,500 specimens of fungi and rust specimens, mostly from the Western Hemisphere. These collections result from more than 75 years of active research on fungi by Penn State faculty members. The collection has been transferred to the University's Mont Alto Campus, and is now the curatorial responsibility of Dr. C. B. Wolfe, Jr. Dr. Wolfe proposes to inventory the collection and arrange it in new compactorized storage cabinets. The transfer of the collection to the Mont Alto Campus means its continued use and supervision by a highly qualified curator. This important resource will remain accessible to the research community, and an active training program in mycology will persist in the Pennsylvania State University system. Natural history collections such as this are irreplaceable sources of information on the biota of the world. Future research depends on their continued growth and proper care.
