The Citizen Science/Crowdsourcing Working Group became the '''Public Participation in Digitization Working Group''' in June 2012. It was established at the Integrated Digitized Biocollections (iDigBio) Summit (November 29–December 2, 2011). The working group was formed to identify specific opportunities to engage the public in digitization, as well as explore strategic partnerships between iDigBio and crowdsourcing service providers and methods to centralize/simplify crowdsourcing, crowdsourcing validation, and advertisement of crowdsourcing needs and other digitization opportunities to the general public. This is a public page used by the working group as it produces its deliverables for the community. To express an interest in joining the working group, please contact [https://www.idigbio.org/contact/Dr._Austin_Mast Austin Mast]. | The Citizen Science/Crowdsourcing Working Group became the '''Public Participation in Digitization Working Group''' in June 2012.
