Abstract

This simple guide, written primarily for the non-specialist, shows how to curate and use geological collections, from basic documentation, storage, conservation and security, through to dispay themes and techniques, education and some more unusual ways of bringing local geology to life. A comprehensive set of appendices is included which show how fossils, minerals and rocks may be organised and stored simply and safely.
