EOL
Pam and Carolyn met with Bob Corrigan. He emphasized value and importance of BHL and EOL working together. Gave an overview of EOL's current development and top 3 desired ways BHL and EOL could interface in their new systems.
  1. Improving visibility of BHL resources in EOL
  2. Getting data out of BHL, mining for traits and adding that to TraitBank
  3. Extracting authoritative texts from BHL for inclusion, possibly modification as derivative works, adding those to BHL and pointing back to the source
Emphasized desire to share same taxonomic backbone. They will be using what he referred to as the EOL Dynamic Working Hierarchy - EOL as TRUNK and GBIF (CoL and ITIS) as TIPS.
