Visitors will get a glimpse into what a major research collection (over 4
million specimens) actually is, and does. The image of a museum as a static
collection of artifacts has little connection to the reality of how much
happens in an active collection, and how a museum interfaces with students,
faculty, government, and the public on a routine basis. People still, even in
the digital era, have an intuitive grasp as to the value of libraries, but
even though the same principles hold for museums, the awareness of their
value might require a little more explanation, and I hope to give exactly
that.<br>
