eastern oyster (<span style="margin:0px"><i class="ContentPasted0">Crassostrea virginica</i></span>) specimens. We aim to understand the ways in which practitioners carry out various aspects of field design, laboratory analysis, and/or curation. Results from
this survey will identify practices across institutions housing archaeological oysters including museums, universities, government and Tribal repositories, and private cultural resource firms. The broader impacts of this survey will highlight the commonalities
and differences in curation practice as a foundation for discussing best practices in eastern oyster curation and collections management, as well as how to improve inter-institution research across archaeological oyster collections. The results of this study
will have implications for other archaeological shell taxa and their long-term curation care.</span></div>
