Significant projects in the near term are identifying and implementing a new collections management database and making the collections data accessible to broader audiences. The collections date to the 1830s and comprise over 280,000 specimens and artifacts, 500 linear feet of papers, and 100,000 images. The focus of the collection is on the Midwest region of the United States, with supplementary material from across North America.
