Scientific publications

• Bulletins of the Natural History Museum of Venice
• Supplements to the Bulletin of the Natural History Museum of Venice
• Quaderni of the Natural History Museum of Venice

These periodical scientific publications have several purposes:

• Illustrate the activities of the Museum, its scientific heritage and the increase of the collections;
• Raise awareness of the research activities conducted by the staff and other reserarches done in collaboration with the Museum;
• Disseminate guides and teaching materials.

Finally, in order to encourage the exchange of scientific publications between similar institutions, the Museum publications are distributed free of charge, with the formula of the exchange, to more than 600 museums and scientific institutions, both Italian and international.
