. Conservation and sustainable use of medicinal plants in Ghana: conservation report. 6. Information management Information management: Overview The project provided the funds to install computer hardware and software at the Ghana Herbarium and at Aburi Botanic Garden, as well as ftinds to recruit members of staff to enter data for the project, hi addition to a pc, a printer, zip drive (for back- up) and un-interruptable power supply (UPS) were provided to each organisation. All hardware was purchased locally in Ghana, to prevent problems with importing goods into the country and to ensure that customer service support was available locally. The UPS was of particular importance as electrical supply in the country is unreliable. Aburi Botanic Garden has dedicated an office that can be firmly secured, for pc use. The Herbarium has generous bench space for pc use and is firmly secured. Backups are made daily by both institutions, with the backup disc being stored in separate buildings.
