Articles for Collection Forum may include original contributions to the literature or significant review articles dealing with the development and preservation of natural history collections. Contributions may include, but are not restricted to, reports of research and methodologies for the collection, preparation, conservation, storage, and documentation of specimens, and discussion of some philosophical, theoretical, and historical aspects of natural history collection management. Case studies that serve to document or augment a philosophy, methodology, or research activity will be considered, but general descriptions of a specific collection or institution are not accepted.

Although there is no formal deadline, to be insured that your manuscript will be considered for publication in the next volume of Collection Forum, manuscripts should be submitted by August 15. Please contact CF Managing Editor at editor@spnhc.org with questions.
