The University of Minnesota Bell Museum's research and                     teaching collections of birds total over 40,000 specimens and                   represent a scientific resource that is both national and                       international in scope.  Of particular importance are series from               the Upper Midwest and Southwestern U.S., Mexico, Philippines, and               both polar regions; the collection also contains significant                    series of seabirds, hybrids, known-age individuals, and rare and                extinct species, many with historical information dating back                   into the past century.  An important Bell Museum goal, now                      nearing completion, is the protection of these valuable specimens               through security measures and the replacement of deteriorating                  specimen cases.  The primary goal of this project is to make the                research collection more readily available to the scientific                    community through modern computerization methods and equipment.                 Following a comprehensive survey of fifty North American museums,               many already with computerized collections, the Bell Museum will                develop a computerization program for its bird collection based                 not only on the most recent computer hardware and software                      technology, but also on the advice and experience of these many                 institutions.
