Mollusc collection at the Aberdeen University Zoology Museum
Aberdeen University has been awarded funding to re-house and catalogue one of its most diverse collections.
The funding will be used in a year-long project to improve the accessibility, storage and interpretation of the mollusc collection at the Zoology Museum on Tillydrone Avenue.
The museum aims to extend the longevity of the collection so it can continue to be used for learning and research in the future.
The university will receive a £1,165 grant as part of the annual Natural Sciences Collections Association’s Bill Petit Memorial Award which supports the conservation of natural science collections.
