Donations We now have a new donations box. More than ever do we need to rely on the assistance of friends of the Macleay. Again we appeal to your sense of generosity, in this period of declining funding for universities. Needless to say, the Museum has not been exempt from the university-wide cuts in funding. The main thrust of our appeal this year is for conservation of the collection.
Donations are tax deductible and greatly appreciated.
We are very pleased to welcome the fifth Macleay Miklouho-Maclay Fellow to the Museum. I look forward with relish to investigating the skeletal components of the Macleay bird collection', Graham said. Graham will be working in the Museum part time for about five months. A graduate of this University, Graham has worked on bird skeletal material at the Australian Museum. Graham also studies living birds.
