The UAA Herbarium was originally created as a teaching collection for the Biological Sciences Department. The Alaska Natural Heritage Program (now Alaska Center for Conservation Science) took over management in the early 2000's. It is now the main repository for research activities by the ACCS. The collection contains about 20,000 specimens of vascular and nonvascular plants. THe collections are mostly from Alaska with an emphasis on non-native plants and rare plants. Regional emphases include otherwise poorly known areas such as Bering Sea Islands, Bering Glacier area of south-central Alaska, and remote regions of southwestern and northwestern Alaska.
