The local, relational database is written and maintained by staff and student contributors from the University of Michigan.[1] The website has a virtual museum, containing mostly mammals and a collection of skulls that can be virtually handled, and there is also a cell phone app.[2] Resources are available for K–12 instructors.[3][4] The ADW markets itself as a resource for constructing scholarly documents.
