University of Washington. Libraries.

Description: Tucked away within the numerous specialized subject libraries at the University of Washington is a gem known as the Elisabeth C. Miller Horticultural Library. The library has several main directives, including service to the Center of Urban Horticulture (which is located on campus as well) and as a clearinghouse of gardening material for the general public. While much of the material available online is geared primarily towards working with gardens in the Pacific Northwest, there are a number of helpful general materials here as well. The web resources section is quite nice, as it contains a number of weblinks (selected by staff at the Library) organized around a host of themes, including botany, ecology, and arboreta. The Booklists By Topic area culls together various lists of important books by topic (over 40 to date), covering areas from alpine and rock gardening to water gardening. Visitors with young children (or teachers) should find a thorough 20-page bibliography, titled Children and Nature, to be an invaluable resource.
