collection include research monographs published by the agency

The Urban Forestry Index (UFind)
is a database of current and historic urban forestry and
arboriculture publications and other media that can be searched by
topic, author, title, description, or keyword.
The Urban Forestry Index provides one comprehensive place to search for

urban forestry publications and other media, increase access to these
materials, and prevent duplication of products that have already been developed.
