[Taxacom] Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature

[Roderic Page]

Users of the Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature might be interested  
in a recent post on my blog http://tinyurl.com/yaef5w3 that describes  
my effort to map articles in that journal to the scanned content in  
BHL. I've created a Zotero group at http://www.zotero.org/groups/bulletin_of_zoological_nomenclature 
  that lists some 600 articles that I've located in BHL.

You can browse the library on Zotero. If you have an account with  
Zotero (it's free) you could join the group and download a local copy  
of the references.

The point of this exercise is to explore how easy it is to go from  
articles (such as we might have in bibliographies of taxa, say in  
EndNote) to the corresponding content in BHL. The major limiting  
factor is access to bibliographies of articles, ideally we'd need  
fairly complete lists of articles for journals to make significant  
progress. If anybody has bibliographies (e.g., EndNote files) that  
have lots of articles from journals scanned by BHL and are willing to  
share them I'd be happy to try and map them to BHL and make the  
results available.

Regards

Rod
