|iDigBio supports a number of Working Groups and Interest Groups. | |iDigBio supports a number of Working Groups and Interest Groups, which form and dissolve organically according to current needs. Working Groups and Interest Groups are small, enduring, topic-focused, collaborative groups of individuals (typically 10-15 participants). Members of these groups collaborate virtually via the iDigBio Forums, Listservs, Wiki, Tele/Video-Conferencing, and/or via onsite meetings to resolve issues and advance progress on the goals of the group. Group membership may change over time; however, the structure and objectives of the group are long-standing. Temporary Working/Interest Groups are typically focused on delivery of short-term objectives, while standing Working Groups are tasked with ongoing research, development, and improvement activities. | ||

When Working Group activities stray into these overlapping subject areas then collaboration between working groups is warranted for those tasks. | This page provides an overview of iDigBio's current (active) and disbanded (inactive) Working Groups and Interest Groups. | ||
