iSamples WG5: Physical Infrastructure, Digitizing, Cataloguing, and Sample Rescue

iSamples Home > iSamples Working Groups > iSamples WG5 Home

Join iSamples-WG5 mail list

 

The objectives of iSamples WG5 are to:

  • develop a set of criteria for which samples should be preserved;
  • develop a set of criteria for which collections should be digitized first;
  • develop a set of best practices for digital archiving of sample data/metadata;
  • research policies on what collections do when their samples get too small.

These findings will be published in a white paper/report to the iSamples RCN and shared with the broader community through iSamples outreach efforts.
 

Co-chairs: Ramona Walls and Leslie Hale
