Hi Steve
I was just working on a web page listing all of the major meteorite
collections in museums. I actually used the information for my book
Meteorites from A to Z. I also have included links to each that has a web
page plus a link if they have an online catalog. Please remember it is just
a work in process and I have not included some rather large institutions. If
anybody has any additional information please let me know.
