West Virginia University, Department of Biology, Collected Publications and Photographs, 1910/2004, bulk 1954/1978

.63 Linear Feet 1 document case, 5 in., 1 document case, 2.5 in.

Publications and photographs relating to West Virginian botany and geology, originating from the WVU Department of Biology and Dr. Charles H. Baer, conservationist and professor of ecology. Topics include geological and archaeological surveys, studies of various sites, and West Virginian Flora. Also includes photographs of Spruce, West Virginia (Pulp Mill and Spruce Hotel, circa 1910-1912). Places mentioned include Randolph, Nicholas, Kanawha, Monongalia, and Barbour Counties, as well as Watoga and Droop Mountain Battlefield State Parks, Dolly Sods, and Cheat Lake. This collection includes Dr. Earl Core's Outlines of the Flora of West Virginia in an Acco binder, published by the WVU Bookstore in 1954. This is one of very few copies, and appears to be related to the "Flora of West Virginia" course he taught at WVU, rather than his seminal Flora of West Virginia.

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
