NJB
Our
Journal Watsonia will be ending in 2010, to be relaunched as New
Journal of Botany in 2011. NJB will have much the same range of subject
matter, but will cover north-west European as well as British and Irish
botany, and it will be professionally published by the independent firm
Maney. NJB will be available for electronic or hard copy subscriptions.

BSBI News is
the newsletter of the BSBI. It is not peer-reviewed, it’s just a
collection of letters sent in by members, but it contains many articles
of interest to botanists. We have scanned most issues since it started
in 1971, but some are still missing from our collection.
New! Cumulative Index of issues 1-110, compiled by Gwynn Ellis.

Literature Searches
On the BSBI Database
you can search for botanical literature by genus. It is fairly
comprehensive for publications on British & Irish plants in the
second half of the 20th century.
Simpson’s Index
Douglas
Simpson’s comprehensive listing of sources of botanical information
relating to the British Isles is now a scarce and valuable tome. It was
scanned and digitized by Tim Rich at the National Museum of Wales, and
is made available here as a download. Abbrevations have been expanded to
make it more readable, and Dr Rich would welcome feedback and corrections.
