Hi Theresa, Diamond Light Source currently offers this capability at all of its beamlines (all equipped with Pilatus detectors). This can be performed either standard pins under controlled humidity conditions, via the HC1 (Sanchez-Weatherby et al. *Acta Cryst.* (2009). D *65*, 1237-1246 http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S0907444909037822 ) available on request at all beamlines. The alternative is using the in-situ capabilities of three of our beamlines, where diffraction datasets can be collected from crystals within the 96well format crystallization plates. Fast data collection and Pilatus detectors help enormously (as a reference read the paper from Owen et al *Acta Cryst.* (2012). D*68*, 810-818 http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S0907444912012553 ) A dedicated software for merging and clustering partial datasets is also available to all users (Foadi et al. *Acta Cryst.* (2013). D*69*, 1617-1632 http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S0907444913012274 ). If you want to know more, please check http://diamond.ac.uk/mx-home/ Hope this helps. Ciao,
