[Taxacom] New Letter Writing Campaign on Scientific Collections

[Julie Palakovich Carr]

Collection curators and scientists can now quickly and easily express their support for the preservation and use of scientific collections. In conjunction with the Natural Science Collections Alliance (NSC Alliance) efforts to pursue a Presidential Executive Order on science collections, a new letter writing campaign is available on the American Institute of Biological Sciences (AIBS) Legislative Action Center. The letter asks President Obama to continue his commitment to science by issuing an Executive Order to institutionalize and improve federal planning and coordination of our public and private collections. To send the prepared letter or to write your own letter, please visit http://capwiz.com/aibs/issues/alert/?alertid=14120676 .
