"The Biodiversity Heritage Library’s (BHL) free, open-access collections and services enable scientists to find the information they need to identify, describe, and conserve the world’s species and habitats. BHL collections have been recognized as critical to the international scientific community. Scientific research is not a static endeavor. As new technologies emerge and scientific data sets are amassed from across the globe, new research questions arise. The rise of Big Data has given way to Big Research Questions around impactful topics such as the causes and potential solutions for climate change, endangered species, and land management. GiftsBHL2 Join us on an exciting new chapter in the evolution of the Biodiversity Heritage Library. BHL Version 2.0 will incorporate advanced features, functionality, and content essential to the research needs of scientists, educators, and students.
