|iDigBio, in collaboration with the University of the Azores, is hosting a mini workshop at the Island Biology 2016 meeting in July 2016, titled Digitized natural history collections: research uses for understanding island biodiversity, biogeography, and communities. Changes in digital technology have made it possible to collect, use, re-use, and share natural history collections and environmental data more easily. Researchers now have access to ever larger data sets for visualization, analysis, and modeling. In our workshop, we present a broad array of examples of the latest developments in island biodiversity research using specimen data from terrestrial and surrounding oceans habitats, including genomics, habitat assessment, phenology, biogeography, and taxonomic revisions. We present current trends in collecting and vouchering of specimens and field data, methods and tools for efficient digitization and mobilization of the specimen data, and tools and skills needed for visualizing the data. We then highlight how the data are being used, especially for research that expands our understanding and conservation of island biodiversity and our environment.

|''abstract for linked-symposia:'' SYNTHESYS3, GBIF, CETAF, iDigBio, and others are working together to create this series of symposia to foster a unified conversation at SPNHC 2016 directed at coordinating efforts to realize global digitization and global data access for biological collections. The goals of these integrated symposia are to discuss:
<ul><li>lessons learned so far, including new developments and data use examples;</li>
<li>strategies for worldwide access to the means to digitize collections data;</li>
<li>guidelines to aid prioritization of collections’ digitization and future collecting; and</li>
<li>the necessary human resources, hardware and software infrastructure for global creation of and access to this much-needed data.</li></ul>
