Understanding Birds

康奈尔鸟类学实验室(CLO)将在2002年在萨普萨克森林开设的新环境科学中心开发一套展品和相关程序，名为《了解鸟类》。新建筑将容纳该实验室的研究、教育和推广活动，包括自然声音图书馆、新的自然图书馆视频和康奈尔大学的脊椎动物系统收藏。该建筑还将包括一个基于多媒体的互动游客中心，为所有年龄、背景和技能水平的游客提供真实和虚拟的学习活动。复制展品的计划将向博物馆、自然中心和其他组织广泛提供。

The Cornell Lab of Ornithology (CLO) will develop "Understanding Birds", a suite of exhibits and related programming in the new environmental science center to be opened in Sapsucker Woods in 2002. The new building will house the Lab's research, education, and outreach operations, including the Library of Natural Sounds, a new Library of Nature Videos, and Cornell's systematic collection of vertebrates. The building also will include a multi-media-based interactive Visitors Center providing both real and virtual learning activities for visitors of all ages, backgrounds and skill levels. Plans for replication of the exhibits will be made available broadly to museums, nature centers and other organizations.
