Museum Information Policy
It is the policy of the Georgia Museum of Natural History to provide limited information to
researchers and non-profit organizations for no fee. Requests for large amounts of information
that would require extensive hours of work by museum personnel, or requests from for-profit
organizations may require payment. Such requests must be negotiated between the Museum Director,
Collection Manager, and the requester before the request can be processed. Requests for
information may be sent via US mail, FAX, or e-mail.
The Museum reserves the right to refuse a loan of any specimens.
YOU MUST INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IN YOUR REQUEST:
your name, position or title, your institution or company's name and mailing address, e-mail,
