The Biodiversity Heritage Library (Biodiversity Heritage Library, in the original, known by the acronym BHL) is an invitation to discovery and inspiration from free access to knowledge about biodiversity.
The site brings together and makes available free literature and visual collections on biodiversity around the world, playing an important role in the global biodiversity community.
If you are fascinated by nature and botanical illustrations, you will certainly be thrilled to browse through so many beautiful messages.
