Abstract
The question of implementing a shade tree inventory is frequently raised. Used properly, an inventory can be a very productive tool. It also can be a very effective paperweight and dust collector. The purpose of this chapter is to address key elements in organizing a productive shade tree inventory system. The design of the inventory is vital to its usefulness, whether it be a basic index card file, organized in a paper binder, or an automated system.
