Lichenological knowledge is dispersed over the world, and lichenology as subject may sometimes be too narrow to attract sufficient students from the nearby communities, be it university, town or country. Therefore it makes sense to advertise worldwide; more so as students have become more mobile in recent years, at least within Europe.

The Lichen Education Mart is a website that allows the advertisement of courses, excursions etc. related to lichenology to students worldwide.

The site is organized in such a way that appropriate information about a course can be uploaded and edited by the organizer, and removed automatically, when it is no more relevant. The up-loader of an advertisement must choose a username and a password, which will allow later editing, but avoid unauthorized people from editing.

The Lichen Education Mart is at present maintained by the Department of Biology, University of Copenhagen. The structure is open to changes according to the need of the users, so please contact the webmaster if you have any suggestions.

Above all, do not hesitate to use the site, if you want your teaching activities known worldwide.
