iDigBio Data Lead to Discovery

Accelerating Digitization of Biodiversity Research Specimens through Online Public Participation

Aiming Up: Natural History Collections as Emerging Resources for Innovative Undergraduate Education in Biology

A Computational- and Storage-Cloud for Integration of Biodiversity Collections

Five task clusters that enable efficient and effective digitization of biological collections

Augmenting optical character recognition (OCR) for improved digitization: Strategies to access scientific data in natural history collections

A workflow for text extraction and parsing for herbarium specimens

Integrating specimen databases and revisionary systematics

Reaching Consensus in Crowdsourced Transcription of Biocollections Information

Semantics in Support of Biodiversity Knowledge Discovery

A Specimen-based View of the World: Using the Biological Collections Ontology to Model Biodiversity Collections

And to Best Practices
