ROYAL BOTANIC GARDENS - VON MUELLER CORRESPONDENCE PROJECT
The von Mueller Correspondence Project (VMCP) makes available to the public the majority of the surviving correspondence of Baron Ferdinand von Mueller. Mueller was Victoria’s first Government Botanist and the first Director of the Melbourne Botanic Garden.
Mueller’s correspondence is believed to have included over 100,000 letters. The VMCP team has located over 15,000 of these letters, with new items continuing to emerge. These documents have been digitally transcribed, translated into English where written in other languages, annotated and indexed so that they can be searched.
