<br><font size=3 face="Times">Hi all,</font>
<br><font size=3 face="Times"> </font>
<br><font size=3 face="Times">Our collection is working on a strategic
plan, and, as much as possible, I would like to work in goals of the natural
history collections community. Does anyone know if there is a strategic
vision for natural history collections/museums? The Organization
for Biological Field Stations handed out a strategic vision at their 2013
meeting, and I was hoping something like this existed for collections.
Beyond the push to database, digitize, and make collection data available
online, I'm not sure about the goals of the community. Any advice
or input would be greatly appreciated.</font>
