[Entm-researchstaff] Fwd: insect cabinet donation

[Krista Zavala]

Hi, all.

A former UCR entomology student (1980's era) is looking to give their
insect collection to the Museum, but we can't use the cabinet that the
collection is in.

The photo below shows it's a smaller cabinet, holding only a small number
of drawers.

We're offering the cabinet essentially free to whoever might need one for
their lab, especially our newer faculty members. Anyone who is interested
should contact me directly, and we'll see about figuring out a good home
for it. Note that *if it holds Cornell drawers, then the drawers will also
be included*, as the Museum does not use that size. There is still some
question about the logistics; it might require someone to drive to
Wrightwood to pick it up, which is why I say "essentially free". ;-)
