- CONNIE PARTNERSHIPS AND COLLABORATIONS ACROSS THE GLOBE BHL is an EXTENSIVE and growing repository of biodiversity literature. The content includes literature dating back to the 15th century, current copyrighted material and open access links to born digital content that cannot currently be ingested (SciELO, Pensoft Press, RJB)) BHL is fully open access under creative commons license. BHL has global coverage and is a global virtual organization BHL links to other regional and global initiatives some are illustrated on the slide also Cetaf/GBIF. First funded through grants received by the Encyclopedia of Life. From the beginning we have Partner with the Internet Archive for storage and scanning. The original driver for setting up BHL was to support predominantly scientists and researchers studying the diversity of life and assist in resolving the taxonomic impediment.

- South African Institute of Aquatic Biodiversity: 753 pages South African National Biodiversity Instiitute 472 pages Nature Kenya, East African Natural History Society 332 pages, 607 article Awarded to SANBI, this new grant will grow BHLA through assessment, collaboration, and digitization, resulting in a wealth of collections unique to African institutions being added to BHL. This new JRS support will allow BHLA to: Conduct outreach to expand active BHLA participation through engagement with current members and recruitment of new participants Improve communications and host workshops and trainings for 13 BHLA member institutions Analyze the existing capacity for participation and content aggregation Stabilize the governance of the organization and infrastructure through sustainability planning In order to accomplish these objectives, Anne-Lise Fourie, Assistant Director of SANBI Libraries, Chair of BHLA and PI on the JRS Africa project, plans to survey current members and potential partners and conduct site visits to Kenya and Uganda to establish capacities and collection profiles. This information will help inform future trainings regarding identification of unique content for inclusion in BHL and the selection of digitization service providers. We are also pleased to announce that BHL Africa has joined BHL as an Affiliate, following the example of BHL Singapore and BHL Mexico, which participate in BHL both as autonomous regional nodes and Members of the BHL. As an Affiliate, BHLA may participate in BHL committees, task forces, and working groups and will collaborate more extensively within the global BHL community. See a list of current BHL Members and Affiliates here.
