5 Genesis: BHL Article Repository Idea first introduced at TDWG 2008, Fremantle (by BHL, many have discussed for years) YouTube for biodiversity articles Safe harbor for sharing People clapped, lots of nodding Needed (need) a way to access articles in BHL BHL has no articles. Nope, we have hundreds of thousands just can t search for them via author, article title search Can find via article coordinates using BHL sui & OpenURLresolver: Journal / Volume / Start Page / Year

6 CiteBank Objectives Create a repository for community-vetted taxonomic bibliographies. Ability to ingest, display, download, and index articles so that the BHL can operate as an article repository. Provide links to content published online through other repositories. Launched on December 6 th 2010

10 Lessons Learned Biblio/Drupal data model insufficient for mass of data envisioned for all biodiversity, too flat and difficult to expand in collaboration with Bibliodevelopment community Data providers want their content findable and managed in the Biodiversity Heritage Library, not a system alongside BHL Maintaining two platforms for biodiversity literature threatens sustainability of the literature resources over the longer term
