In an increasingly competitive scientific and fiscal environment, all research institutions must cater for the needs of their stakeholders and the end-users of the products they deliver, if they are to survive in the new millennium. This is no different for herbaria and the producers of botanical information, who must produce and deliver botanical information and services that their customers require. This report is the result of a workshop held at the National Herbarium of the National Botanical Institute (NBI) in Pretoria, South Africa, during 2002 to assess the needs of users of botanical information, and contains detailed analyses of what users want and need.
