Save the Dates! July 17th - July 20th, 2017.

For these four days in July, the Milwaukee Public Museum (MPM) [1] and the Field Museum (FM) [2] host the 2017 Entomological Collections Management Workshop sponsored by the Entomological Collections Network [3] (ECN), the SysEB Section [4] for ESA [5], and the Purdue Entomological Research Collection (PERC) [6]. That’s a Monday through Thursday with one of those days in Chicago to visit the Field Museum and at least a day devoted entirely to digitization of entomological collections. Be on the lookout for the schedule and registration information later this year.

Please note these are 4 full days. All participants should expect to arrive on July 16th and depart on the July 21st.

Here's a link to last year's inaugural ECN Entomological Collections Management Workshop - to get an idea of the topics to be covered. http://ecnweb.org/default.asp?Action=Show_Workshop [7]
