There are several citations available, but the technology changes of course. Various vendors have approached large specimen collections at our NMNH about tools for whole drawer imaging. No endorsement is made nor implied. I will connect you with our curators and collections preservation people involved with ongoing projects at NMNH off-list, but Genevieve Lewis-Gentry’s suggestion to search on the SPNHC list is a great one.
