This is Mariah Lewis, Metadata Specialist for the Expanding Access to Biodiversity Literature Grant Project, reporting in! Well, we didn’t get that biodiversity literature television show we had been hoping for, but the Expanding Access grant team was on the move again in February conducting training sessions. This time it was a cross-country adventure to California. Happy to escape the New York winter, I began my adventure in San Diego.

On February 1 – 3, the 2017 National Digital Stewardship Residency (NDSR) BHL cohort convened in Washington, DC for an intensive two-day BHL Workshop followed by tours of local library and museum collections. As part of the Institute for Museum and Library Serves (IMLS)-funded Foundations to Actions grant, five residents will each be working with BHL mentors over the next 12 months to identify ways to improve our workflows and website and to enhance the user experience.

Last month, two Expanding Access to Biodiversity Literature (EABL) team members attended ALA Midwinter as exhibitors.
