Chris Freeland and William Ulate attended this meeting at the Chicago Field Museum where representatives of all BHL Programs (except Bibliotheca Alexandrina) shared their progress during this last year. It was also discussed and reviewed the Vision of BHL as a global unified network where its member institutions share their leadership and coordinate within the nodes, engaging with other organizations related to the field to become the recognized reference tool for biodiversity literature. All participants agreed on more and better communications between the nodes and defined ways to coordinate this. A blog post with the outcomes of the meeting was later shared at:
http://blog.biodiversitylibrary.org/2011/11/quick-overview-from-second-global-bhl.html. A Global BHL Principles Document has been approved and a it will be circulated soon; also a Global BHL Coordinating Committee was nominated with a representative of each BHL Voting Member. As part of next steps, the gBHL-CC, lead by Nancy Gwinn, will work to draft its by-laws and approve them as a transitory agreement before they meet again early next year (the exact date and place are still to be determined); apress release will be prepared and distributed and a website for Global BHL presence will be set by the January 2012.
14-15: Life and Literature Conference, Field Museum, Chicago, Illinois, USA. The meeting convened librarians, biologists, computer scientists, publishers, students, and other stakeholders who discussed for two days agenda for biodiversity literature digitizing and its networked environment for the next four to five years.
http://www.lifeandliterature.org/. The proposed break-out groups developed ideas and suggestions that provided the future framing for BHL (
http://www.slideshare.net/chrisfreeland/life-literature-future-framing-for-bhl).
16: Chris Freeland and William Ulate participated in the JRS African Digitization Workshop at the Field Museum, an event sponsored by the JRS Foundation, where nine African representatives from different fields (librarians, biologists, computer scientists, publishers and students) met six colleagues from the Biodiversity Heritage Library and other initiatives like EOL and Internet Archive, to discuss on African needs and objectives for Biodiversity Literature Digitization. Each African attendee was invited to give a brief 10-minutes presentation about their institution and projects that would relate to the next 5 years of the Biodiversity Heritage Library; the discussion that came afterwards defined the next steps to collaboratively identify the materials useful for African colleagues (including gray literature). After this, a proposal will be developed to generate this content with the proper Metadata and distributed through an adequate infrastucture, according to the African needs.

15: Following up on the Life and Literature Meeting and the JRS African Biodiversity Literature Digitalization Workshop in November 14th - 15th and November 16th, respectively, several African attendees were encouraged and advised on applying for funding to the JRS Call for Pre-proposals (
http://www.jrsbdf.org/v3/Home.asp). As a result, colleagues from 3 different institutions in African nations submitted pre-proposals to JRS. Also an additional pre-proposal was presented to JRS by BHL-US to support meeting with the African colleagues in South Africa and helping develop a full proposal to promote the Digitization of African Biodiversity Literature.
March 2012
12: During the SPARC Open Access Meeting 2012 in Kansas City, Missouri, Trish Rose-Sandler gave a short talk at the Innovation Fair, and also presented a poster entitled “
Open Content and the BHL: Breathing New Life into Old Data” (
http://www.slideshare.net/trosesandler/open-content-breathing-new-life-into-old-data) to showcase how the principles of BHL (Extensive, Global and Open) allow to provide and promote the appropriate reuse of its corpus.
21: A project proposal, titled “
The Art of Life: Data Mining and Crowdsourcing the Identification and Description of Natural History Illustrations from the Biodiversity Heritage Library”, presented by Chris Freeland on behalf of the Missouri Botanical Garden, received $260,000 in funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities to identify and describe natural history illustrations from the digitized books and journals in the online Biodiversity Heritage Library. This project will develop software tools for automated identification and description of visual resources contained within the more than 100,000 volumes and 38 million pages of core historic literature made available through BHL digitization activities.

Freeland, Chris1

The Biodiversity Heritage Library (BHL) is an international consortium of more than thirty of the world’s leading natural history museum and botanical garden libraries, working together to digitize the public domain literature in their collections. BHL also works with rights holders within learned societies and other organizations to obtain permission to digitize their journal backfiles and monographs, enabling the inclusion of contemporary content in BHL while still publishing all materials via open access means. The digital images and derivative access files of scanned books produced through BHL digitization activities are freely available for download and reuse by anyone with an internet connection. In this way BHL provides new digital access to content that has previously only been available in bound form on library shelves, and does so with minimal restrictions. In addition to publishing the digital files representing a book, BHL has built services and APIs on top of its corpus that allow content to be enhanced through manual data entry and automated analyses. BHL provides interfaces for authorized librarians and users to edit bibliographic metadata for scanned books, including the ability to represent titles in ways that they have been referenced by scholars and various indices since Linnaeus’ publications in the 1750s and before. BHL has built and enhanced existing user interfaces for viewing the digitized books online, including services that enable third-party software developers to bundle BHL content within their own applications. BHL also employs the use of external services to enhance its registry, such as its incorporation of the TaxonFinder service from uBio that searches for and extracts all of the scientific names from the BHL corpus, providing users with an innovative names-based index to more than 250 years of scientific literature. BHL is leading a new initiative to mirror the digitized volumes in its collection at global scale and to bring in new content by partnering with large organizations and multi-national consortia that can provide content and infrastructure to BHL through their own mission-funded or grant-funded activities. Through these partnerships BHL is building an internationally replicated digital library of taxonomic works, serving students and scholars researching the world’s biodiversity as well as computer scientists and informaticians building new and novel algorithms for the semantic enhancement of scientific texts.
