Collections should be administered by non-profit or private institutions unless an individual or profit-making organization is willing to establish a perpetual trust returning a reasonable per-specimen, per-year maintenance cost for the collection. 2. A collection must have at least one professional mammalogist who is directly responsible for it. 3. Collections must be housed in buildings that provide adequate protection from fire, water, dust, excessive heat or light, and other physical hazards. We recommend that important permanent records (such as catalogues and field notes) be kept in a fireproof or fire retardant safe or its equivalent. 4. Specimens must be stored in insect, dust, and light-proof containers. 5. Specimens must be periodically inspected and fumigated in accordance with federal regulations which stipulate the kinds of fumigants that can be used for this purpose (Williams et al., Special Publication, Carnegie Museum of Natural History, 4:54-56, 1977). 6. Specimens must be prepared in a manner that insures their utility. It is particularly critical that osteological materials be properly prepared. The use of dermestid beetles and their larvae in cleaning small skulls and other osteological materials is strongly recommended, but dermestid colonies should be located so to prevent infestation of the collection proper. 7. Specimens must be arranged according to a specific plan that is recorded and, preferably, posted. 8. Field notes and ancillary data must be preserved as a part of the permanent record for each specimen. 9. Data on specimen labels, in field notes, in the permanent catalogues, and wherever else data are recorded in the collection must be accurate. 10. A permanent catalogue of all specimens in the collection must be maintained. The catalogue must include at least the minimal data recommended by the American Society of Mammalogists' Committee on Information Retrieval: catalogue number; genus; species; sex; country, continent, or ocean of capture; state or province of capture; method of preparation; date of capture. Implementation of electronic data-processing techniques to facilitate management of specimens and data is recommended. Also, it is recommended that collections maintain catalogues of individual accessions, in addition to those of individual specimens, to facilitate keeping records of collecting permits, field notes, and other information ancillary to the specimens. 11. The collection must be accessible to all qualified users. 12. Accessibility to collections by unqualified persons must be restricted. We recommend the formation of separate teaching collections for use in basic courses, and the restriction of catalogued specimens for research purposes. 13. Loans with other institutions must be handled in a professional manner. Specimens sent on loan should be properly packaged in accordance with federal regulations (Williams et al., Special Publication, Carnegie Museum of Natural History, 4:62-68, 1977). APPENDIX V. Continued. 14. Type specimens must be identified as such, stored in cases marked accordingly, and made accessible to qualified scientists. They should not be sent on loan. Type specimens should be deposited only in institutions wherein the specimens will receive the perpetual care they require.
