Library
The Harvard Forest Library is a collection of monographs and periodicals related to the study of forest ecology, with an emphasis on the Northeast deciduous forest. The collection is searchable online through HOLLIS, the Harvard University Library catalog. The HF Library retains all publications from the USDA Northeast Forest Experiment Station, the majority of those from the Southern and North Central Stations, and selected publications from other regions. Note: materials are available for use inside the library only and do not circulate.
