    Today’s #DayOfScience started with editing Sam’s #NSFGRFP application, catching up on emails, and preparing a new loan invoice for the University of Michigan Museum of Natural History. Now that I got that situated I can work with some specimens for a while!

    This drawer has been sitting out in the collection space because a summer visitor was interested in studying the specimens within it. We have a spreadsheet that has all the row, cabinet, and drawer numbers – this helped keep things organized as the specimens have undergone two huge moves to get to where they are now. So I searched the drawer number to figure out where it belonged in the collection.

    I am forever grateful for this master list and will spend time adding to it so we know what’s in the contents of the drawers as well. That will make searching for requests much easier! #fossil #event
