At the National Museum of Ireland we have lots of disarticulated post-cranial bones of giant Irish deer (<i>Megaloceros</i>), as well as some broken bits of antler. We are in the process of rehousing this material. The current plan is to separate material out
based on bone type (so all the femora housed together, all the ribs housed together and so on). These will then be stored in crates/boxes and then shelved. We have very limited space so giving each bone, set of bones it's own drawer isn't really an option. </div>

Would people have any examples of how their institutions store this type of material or have any recommendations on how to store it when there is a lot of it and space is limited?</div>
