Publishing Research on Fossils in Private Collections?
Paleoworld-101 posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Hi all, Someone has told me that researchers generally can't publish papers on fossils that are retained in private collections, but i am unconvinced. Is this really the case? I'm drawing a blank on thinking of notable examples of fossils that have been published which are held in a private collection, but i'm sure such cases exist. Perhaps anyone on this forum has a personal example of a situation where a fossil they found was published in the literature and that they still have ownership of it? What if someone finds a fossil and a cast is made for study but the original is kept by the finder. Is this really a problem for research procedures?- 59 replies
