Construction of Research Collections Addition at the RMBL

苏珊·艾伦·洛尔9412945落基山生物实验室是一个独立的非营利性野外站，不隶属于任何机构，为希望在野外环境中研究高海拔生物学的研究人员提供设施。60多年来，研究人员一直在研究人民币。最近从国家科学基金会获得的设施赠款帮助建造和翻新了几栋建筑。该项目将协助RMBL对目前的研究图书馆大楼进行扩建，以存放目前分散在外地站各个壁橱和办公室中的各种研究标本收藏(鸟类、昆虫、哺乳动物和植物)。经过五年的工作和审查，在完成了RMBL总体规划，强调了需要足够的研究收藏和空间来利用它们。改建后的空间将使这些藏品对RMBL的研究人员更有用。配套资金将用于设立一名藏品馆长，并建立一个地理信息系统，并在其中增加研究藏品数据。

Allen-Lohr, Susan 9412945 The Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (RMBL) is an independent, nonprofit field station with no institutional affiliation, which provides facilities for researchers who wish to study high-altitude biology in a field setting. Researchers have come to the RMBL for more than six decades. Recent facilities grants from the NSF have assisted with construction and renovation of several buildings. This project will assist the RMBL in providing an addition to the current research library building to house the various research specimen collections (birds, insects, mammals and plants) that are currently scattered around the field station in various closets and offices. The RMBL Master Plan, completed in 1989 after five years of work and review, highlights the need for adequate research collections and space to utilize them. The remodeled space will make the collections vastly more useful to researchers at the RMBL. Matching funds will provide for a collections curator, and also the establishment of a geographic information system and the addition of research collections data to it.
