Hello, I'm Vicky Zhuang, a collections manager at the University of Texas at El Paso Biodiversity Collections. I take care of our malacology collections (~15,000 lots focusing on the southwest US) and I subscribed to get more up to date information on malacology collections management and hopefully, promote the use of our collections, which is almost digitized entirely online at
http://arctos.database.museum/utep_inv
Not too many people know about our collections, since our curator Dr. Artie Metcalf passed away a few years ago.
I also want to share the following job ad.
