College of the Atlantic (Dorr Museum of Natural History, College of the Atlantic)

Log Number: MA-245615-OMS-20

College of the Atlantic will complete the George. B. Dorr Natural History Museum Collections Relocation project, which consists of developing a collections relocation plan, purchasing and installing collections storage systems, relocating the collections, and evaluating the project. The building that houses most of the collections will be torn down, presenting the opportunity to relocate the collections into state-of-the-art storage systems in dedicated storage rooms in the Center for Human Ecology, the college's new academic building. The project includes the purchase and installation of a movable high-density storage system, with museum-grade cabinets and shelves, as well as related archival collections storage supplies. The collections relocation project will support stewardship of the museum's valuable natural history specimens
