The Consortium of Pacific Northwest Herbaria was created in 2007 to bring together regional herbaria and provide an online portal to the wealth of existing and emerging information about the flora of Pacific Northwest North America. Over 3.3 million specimen records and numerous online electronic resources are managed by the region's 53 herbaria, representing an irreplacable storehouse of information for research and public education.
