It is the aim of the Mahajanga Basin Project, the Field Museum of Natural History, and our funding partners to keep download requests from MorphoSource focused on research and education. We limit downloads of files via MorphoSource to one-time use and for research and education purposes only, subject to review by museum personnel, and also by Mahajanga Basin Project Principal Investigator Patrick O’Connor. Before release, we require a response to an email thread briefly describing the educational purpose and/or research aims involved, and acknowledging that the released data will not be otherwise shared, distributed, copied, or disseminated once released.
