Re: setting / mounting agent for very small bones
Jenna,
Do a search on here for 'embedded specimens'.
Noona ran a great prac at the SLAMN (then St Marys) Conference a few years back where we got to have a go at doing this ourselves.
There's some great photos on the thread.
It may still be possible to get a copy of the booklet.

Re: AUDIT
ISS do the school cleaning here. When I asked that question a few years back I was told that they maintain their own chemical registers, but they were happy to supply MSDS for us.
