During the coming years, the botanical collections at the Swedish Museum of Natural History (S) will be temporarily inaccessible for loans and visits. The building where the collections are housed will be renovated, and during a period of several years the collections will be stored elsewhere or in transport between storage and the museum. The renovation is scheduled to be finished Summer 2023, and then a period of at least two years follow when the collections are moved back to the herbarium until full service can be provided again. **Date modified in Index Herbariorum**: 2022-04-01 > [!cite] This page is automatically generated • Data on this page were obtained from [Index Herbariorum](https://sweetgum.nybg.org/science/ih/) on 2023-08-23. • Meaning of acronyms in TL-2 is not always the same as in IH.
