In November, four of our BHL NDSR residents delivered webinars reporting on the results of their research and recommendations on how we might best improve the features and functionality of BHL to incorporate new technologies and evolving best practices for digital libraries and the larger biodiversity community.
You can view recordings of these past webinars:
- Alicia Esquivel (Chicago Botanic Garden): BHL Collections Analysis
- Katie Mika (Ernst Mayr Library, Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University): Transcriptions, Crowdsourcing and Metadata for BHL

New to Adobe Connect? We recommend following the link to the webinar about 15-20 minutes before the start time to install any add-ins as needed and to run the Audio Wizard. Please note that sometimes after running the Audio Wizard, you may still need to click on the picture of the microphone to connect the microphone. Should you have any questions, we’ll also be monitoring the chat throughout. Hope you can join us!
