Part III, Line 1a:Collections include the Organization's library and living plant collection, which are on display for the general public. These collection items are not capitalized by the Organization. The Organization's library consists of 300 botanical periodicals and over 6,000 rare books, including floristic, ecological and horticultural works that relate to deserts of the world. The library also includes materials on botanical illustration, plant taxonomy and nomenclature, edible and useful plants, rare and endangered plants, and desert ecology and conservation. The living plant collection consists of plants that are rare and difficult to replace. The Organization employs horticulturists to ensure that the collection items are preserved and protected. Based on an independent study conducted in 2005 by an advisor from Arizona State University, a value of $20 was estimated for each unprocessed herbarium specimen and a value of $35 was estimated for each processed herbarium specimen, for an estimated total of herbarium specimens of $2,125,000. In conformity with the practice followed by many gardens, specimens contributed to the Organization are not included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Costs of purchasing collection items are included as a change in unrestricted net assets in "Program expense" in the accompanying consolidated statement of activities.
