[Nhcoll-l] seeking repositories for personal collection data

[CSTURMJR at pitt.edu]

Jodi,

Not exactly sure about the premise, however, I don't believe that I would
be willing to maintain the data in a personal collection without the
specimens as vouchers. I maintain a small collection of mollusks. Those
which do not involve my research are transfer to the Carnegie Museum;
specimens and data. Those over which I continue to maintain ownership will
be transferred to the Carnegie at some in the future. They will then get
the specimens and all associated data. I would imaging if I wanted to make
the data available now, I would set up a personal webpage and post it
there.
