Greetings SPNHC Peeps,<br>

RE: TWO Days till <a href="https://together.taxonworks.org/">TaxonWorks
Together 2025</a> - Registration open and free! May 6 - 8 online.<br>

This year's #TWT2025 offers a wide variety of topics. Perhaps of
special interest to NHCOLL members:<br>
<ul>
<li> Natural History Collections in TaxonWorks: Entering a
Community Consensus Phase<br>
Why TaxonWorks as digitization software? Status and vision.
Opportunity for questions focusing on digitization
functionality. Announcement of <b>a year-long working group on
SpecimenPages</b>, facilitated by the SFG.</li>
<li>Informatics opportunities integrating field stations and
collections, with special reference to the practical needs and
opportunities at the Illinois Natural History Survey</li>
<li>Why are the Earth's scientific collections important?
Perspectives from a catalyzed series of events emerging during
COVID 19</li>
</ul>
<p>Other topics include: TaxonWorks 101, AI-informatics, stories of
data migration, eDNA, and geoSpatial data<br>
</p>
Most sessions are moderated discussions with opportunities for your
input. Hear from people that inspire us, and revel in the on-line
conversation that pervades throughout. Check the agenda to <a href="https://together.taxonworks.org/">see who said yes!</a> to
being one of our guest panelists. We welcome everyone and look
forward to your participation and insights.<br>

In anticipation,<br>
