Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities are being administered in compliance with federal and state law.

Visits to the Collection

The collections are generally closed to the public; researchers can make a request to Curator for access to the specimens in the collections.

We also offer tours for public schools (K-12) to visit our collections or we can arrange a presentation at your school; please contact Meg Daly, director of the Museum of Biologcial Diversity.
