I'm looking for information concerning fees charged for
providing data from natural history collection databases. For
example, I recently received a brochure fromthe Kentucky
Natural Heritage Program Data Services program with the
following fees listed:
$45/hour - one hour minimum + cost of maps (if request
includes plotting locations on map)
std. requests require ave. of 2 hours
(govt.agencies, non-profit org., students &
researchers are provided 2 hours of data
service/month free)
$90/hour for 24 hr service
$10,000 for annual subscription with $1,000 set up fee
A California museum herp division based its recovery fees on
the number of records -- primarily to recover the cost of
providing the data.
Can anyone else provide actual fees requested by museums or
other agencies? Thanks.
