	address = {Baltimore, Maryland},
	abstract = {More than 60 amateur fossil clubs and societies are active throughout the U.S. today. In contrast to other science-interest groups like birdwatchers and stargazers, until recently fossil clubs and societies typically have been regionally focused with little communication on a national scale with other similar clubs and societies. Since 2013 the FOSSIL project has sought to unite amateur and professional paleontologists in the U.S. into a cyberenabled community of practice through meetings and related activities, newsletters, web communication and the rapidly expanding world of social media. Front-end evaluation of fossil clubs and societies indicates high interest in relevant science topics, the practice of collecting, and working with professionals. Thus, the development of fossil collections is a fundamental activity in common with these audiences. The FOSSIL project is working with fossil clubs and societies to educate about, as well as promote the benefits of, digitized images of fossil collections not just for research, but also for the education of downstream users. In addition, the use of 3D digitized images and replicas represents a newly expanding niche for K-12 outreach. Our overall goal for engaging members of fossil groups in digital paleontology is increased awareness and access to fossil resources and closer engagement of amateur and professional paleontologists in the U.S.},

	abstract = {The iDigBio Visiting Scholars Program provides early career
professionals an opportunity to explore a project and
produce deliverables advancing collections digitization
efforts. In her position as the 2012 Visiting Scholar, Anna
Monfils was able to address three proposed foci: 1)
advancing digitization efforts at the Central Michigan
University Herbarium (CMC), 2) conducting a workshop to
expand digitization efforts for regional collections in MI and
the Great Lakes, and 3) developing an Interactive web based
educational module integrating field, virtual and museum
experiences. Anna will discuss the unique challenges, marked
progress and lessons learned in the digitization of the CMC
regional collection. Highlights and deliverables from the Small
Collections Herbarium Workshop will be provided. Anna will
introduce an educational module utilizing digitized herbarium
records, place-based learning and TourGuide, an online tool
for creating interactive virtual tours. In addition to the
proposed foci, Anna will talk about {\textquotedblleft}value added{\textquotedblright} items that
have developed out of her iDigBio Visiting Scholar
opportunity including significant institutional investment in
the CMC collection, a collaborative proposal submitted to the
Hanes Foundation to digitize 11 regional collections in
Michigan, a partnership with iDigBio to assess student
learning in collections digitization, participation in a writing
workshop to produce a manuscript on the value of regional
collections and iDigBio sponsorship of a BOTANY 2013
Symposium on broadening participation in the botanical
sciences.

	abstract = {Integrated Digitized Biocollections, iDigBio, is an exciting new resource for discovery of vouchered museum specimen data integrated from hundreds of museums across the United States (US). Over 150 US museums, organized in groups called Thematic Collection Networks (TCNs), are busy digitizing data from millions and millions of specimens in order to create a database of fit-for-research-use data suitable for addressing grand challenge questions. iDigBio and the TCNs are funded by the NSF{\textquoteright}s Advancing Digitization of Biological Collections (ADBC) program. The ADBC is a collaboration between the Biological Sciences and Geosciences Directorates to fund the TCNs and iDigBio{\textquoteright}s hub to support the digitization activities and the online deployment of the integrated data at http://portal.idigbio.org. To address the costs, efficiency, and speed of digitization, iDigBio actively seeks to engage the broader community to work on discovering and disseminating best practices for current and future digitization efforts. iDigBio activities include sponsored workshops, conference participation, a community-derived wiki, and a website (http://www.idigbio.org). Our efforts focus on such topics as: addressing data standards, cyberinfrastructure development, digitization workflows, georeferencing, natural language processing (NLP), public participation, research using specimen data, education and outreach, and biodiversity informatics. iDigBio working groups welcome new members and we appreciate your input and suggestions for workshops, working groups, and our web site.
