Welcome to the fourth annual iDigBio Retreat! The retreat provides an open forum for the iDigBio team to review progress, help develop plans for the future, and to get to know each other better. This year, we will gather to think anew about our goals, objectives, scope, policies, etc. as we move forward into our renewal. In particular, our focus will be shifting towards data use and sustainability.
