Information Database Policy
We do our best to maintain a database of information on all research projects carried out by people who stay at the Center. The objective is to create a secure archive of specifically Dominican information and data sets. This archive is intended for public access but an on-line database has not yet been created. The collection is critical to enhance the value of the center as a research site and national resource.

For the stated reasons, the Archbold Center implements the following data archival policy to guarantee the long-term availability of information and their protection from unauthorized use:
