Florida Museum Accommodates Vast Collection with High-Density Shelving

The Florida Museum of Natural History houses one of North America's most extensive herpetology, ichthyology, and invertebrate zoology wet collections - collections that preserve specimens in ethanol. When the museum built a customized facility to store approximately 4 million wet specimens in 60,000 gallons worth of ethanol, they turned to Patterson Pope to re-envision their storage.
