Carnegie Institute (Carnegie Museum of Natural History)

Carnegie Museum of Natural History will develop dedicated and secure storage for the most important component of its vertebrate paleontology collection of 462 specimens, a valuable resource for paleontologists worldwide. Staff will create dedicated storage space for the collection, significantly improve mounts, enhance security, mitigate environmental concerns, and update collection data in preparation for a new collections management database. Ultimately, the project will enable the institute to make its invaluable vertebrate paleontology type specimen collection and related data more widely available and better known.
