[Taxacom] Digitization of Biological Collections

[Hank Bart]

Dear Taxacom Subscribers,

 

Participants in a focus group, held at the National Evolutionary Synthesis
Center February 5-7, 2010, drafted an outline for the digitization and web
mobilization of data and images associated with U.S. biological collections.
Input from the community is requested as this plan develops to ensure that
it builds appropriately on existing projects and reflects the missions and
needs of the nation's diverse biological collections.  

 

Please review the outline at http://digbiocol.wordpress.com/ and send you
comments to wg-digitization-bounces at nescent.org.

 

Many thanks in advance,

Hank Bart
