1. all field notes,

2. specimens,

3. records,

4. photographs,

5. maps,

6. computer-generated media,

7. and all other data.

All paper documents and photographs must be originals. Two bound copies of the final report and one unbound copy must be included with the collection.

B. All necessary conservation treatment of artifacts or records must be completed prior to arriving at the MDAH facility. We are not responsible for conservation that is the result of conditions existing prior to receipt of the materials. Artifacts which will need future conservation treatments need to be identified and the cost of those treatments will be assessed in addition to the standard curation fee.

C. Any collection, in our opinion, that is infested with vermin will be returned promptly at the expense of the owner.
