The Herbarium also helps foreign botanists in several other ways: it pays the annual dues to the American Bryological Society for a Czech botanist and receives in exchange collections of bryophytes not otherwise available. The Herbarium also sends bryological books to a scholar in Kazakhstan and receives in return difficult-to-obtain literature from the local Akademia Nauk.
In addition to exchange of specimens each Museum Section has an exchange program for reprints. By distributing copies of Museum faculty publications to interested colleagues and institutions abroad, the Museum receives in exchange publications of foreign scientists which would be too expensive to acquire through purchase. The reprint collections are basic research tools for faculty, students, and other scholars who use Museum collections.
Information on techniques of making facsimile reproductions of artifacts, coins, and fossils has been distributed to institutions abroad upon request as have photographs and other information on specific exhibits on display in the Museum.
