Though some UCMP collections and facilities are only available for use by qualified researchers, there are many fossil exhibits on public display outside of the collection on the first and second floors of the Valley Life Sciences Building.

In addition, the UCMP website contains thousands of online pages of content about the history of life on Earth.
