The Internal Advisory Committee (IAC) includes staff from iDigBio, Thematic Collections Networks (TCNs), Partners to Existing Networks (PENs), and NSF. The IAC meets regularly to report on progress in digitization efforts, share best practices and standards, identify gaps in digitization areas and technology, enhance training efforts, and report on collaborations.

IAC meetings are held quarterly (February, May, August, and November) on the first Wednesday of the month at 2:00 PM Eastern via Zoom:

Please note that this meeting requires a password! The password should have been emailed to you, but if you do not have the password, please reach out to Cat Chapman [2].

TCNs are required to provide regular progress reports to iDigBio, which are due prior to every IAC meeting. Reports are submitted via email; see instructions here:
