Intake of borrowed material

When staff, faculty or adjust researchers want to borrow material from another institution, they do so through the Curator/Director of Operations. Material from other institutions is held in the type room in a research drawer for the requesting person.

Upon unpacking the borrowed material, scan all the accompanying paperwork. Some organizations want you to send back an invoice in which you've verified all the material that was sent arrived in good condition, so be on the lookout for instructions!

On our end, we ask that you photograph specimens at time of intake. If the delivery box is damaged, photograph that also.

Save all the photos and scans to the DocLib/BorrowedSpecimens/(Folder=name of the borrower)
