GBIF π±π¦ Instead of your #Collection records collecting dust, π¨ learn how to make your data findable through #GrSciColl!
The Global Registry of Scientific Collections (GRSciColl) is a registry service managed by GBIF that contains information on physical scientific collections (content, location and contacts). ππ
In our recent #GBIFDataBlog post, π learn how to upload collection descriptors (metadata about a collection) which are indexed and searchable. π
Making collection content discoverable when you donβt have occurrences published on GBIF
This blog post is a tutorial on how to upload collection descriptors in the Global Registry of Scientific Collections (GRSciColl). If you are someone working with a physical collection or work with people who do, you might be interested in making these collections findable. Ideally, the content of these collections would be digitized and made available online on relevant platforms like GBIF.org, iDigBio.org, ALA.org.au, etc. Sharing digital specimen records is a great way to ensure the discoverability of collection content.
