*2017  iDigBio assumes the role of a GBIF participant node in the U.S., at which time iDigBio’s project manager was named as the Node Manager (and subsequently elected to also serve as Regional Representative for North America in 2018) and one of iDigBio’s PIs as Head of Delegation. This development has fostered close involvement between iDigBio and GBIF, strengthened communication between iDigBio, GBIF, and ALA, and led to an increasingly strong relationship between these programs and the leadership of DiSSCo.

*2020  Technical staff of GBIF, iDigBio, and Index Herbariorum (IH) team up to develop the US Collections List which includes 1591 biodiversity collections in the United States. Data in iDigBio and IH were migrated to the developing Global Collections Registry at GBIF and are extracted via API to continuously populate the collections list at [https://www.idigbio.org/portal/collections iDigBio]. Curation of these data are accomplished by iDigBio staff through authentication with GBIF.
