Museum specimens get new steel cases
by Kris M. Bergquist
Kansan staff writer
Most KU students will never see the changes in the Museum of Natural History, but museum officiaries said the changes were necessary.
University Daily Kansan / Friday, May 5, 1989
"You know if you don't store wool carefully, moths will get in, and we have the same problem here," said Philip Humphrey, director of the museum. "We have literally hundreds of thousands of specimens, and insects like the moth or the carpet beetle give us a constant battle."
The museum's collections, which are used for scientific research, now are kept in wooden cases in the museum and are not used for exhibit.
The museum has been awarded two grants to help keep the mammal and bird collections in good shape. The museum has about 145,000 mammal specimens in 500 cases and 87,000 birds in 250 cases.
museum and are not user-friendly.
These collections include nearby 17 taxa of baizea mals, reptiles, amphibians, fish and vertebrate fossils.
The National Science Foundation financed the replacement of some of the wooden cases with about 30 new steel cases, costing $2,000 each, but with twice the capacity of the wooden ones.
There are still 400 wooden cases for the mammal collection that need to be occupied by students as a representative director for membership and public relations at the museum.

Dwigans said the paint on the wooden cases gave off gases that damaged the specimens. She said the new steel cases would be painted with a paint that did not damage collections and also would be airlight.

"Each specimen is a unique record," Dwigsans said. "There are some specimens that are nearly two years old. Of course, there is insect damage on the insects in the case and the hair tells out. We just try to preserve."
The drawers in the cases will be lined with an acid-free paper that will protect the specimens. A foam liner under the paper that the specimens are placed on will cushion specimens against building vibrations and against movement caused by opening and closing drawers.
"It may deter them, but it by no means kills them off." Humphrey said. "The only way to kill is to put all of the specimens in deep freezes. We would have to have a lot of deep freezes to put them all in."
Humphrey said the temperature and humidity was controlled for different kinds of exhibits, but it was not enough to kill the insects.
