Erica,
if these are the migration observation cards, the National Phenology Network has a well-advanced Citizen Science project transcribing these (they may have completed it) through Patuxent Wildlife Research Center. See link at https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.pwrc.usgs.gov_bpp_&d=AwIFAg&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=CLFZJ3fvGSmDp7xK1dNZfh6uGV_h-8NVlo3fXNoRNzI&m=xMXlkshbHJeT4MZOoc-3kVNMaX_Ak_z0Ni9g74SENiQ&s=t5CZoUZlfk9evWlQdIE8UQgc94yMT1mUFs6ZP5b38kA&e=

We aren?t as far along as MVZ in being ready to provide digital images for transcription of these sort of records, but if this researcher is interested in transcribing from our paper records we definitely want to capture it as bird observation records in Arctos. I need to take a better look at the archive materials he is interested in and at what observation records look like in Arctos, but then I would love to chat more about this.

> Hi Erica - I don't know anything about those specific observations, but this type of transcription is something that we're very interested in for our own archival collections. We've been collaborating with Ben Brumfield who developed From the Page (https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__beta.fromthepage.com&d=AwIGaQ&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=CLFZJ3fvGSmDp7xK1dNZfh6uGV_h-8NVlo3fXNoRNzI&m=7I1K0xrJzOwwhCxGYvQ-rXQBWDwUs0WF-q2ivT6mHK0&s=YMx0kGyACKFCi4LUYpx-vykETm2x6BB6cJ8sJC-wcnI&e= ). Our eventual goal is to capture the bird observations in our field notes (especially historic ones) and export those in a format that can be ingested into Arctos as bird observations. We'd be happy to talk more with you about that if you're interested.

Has anyone seen any of these such records already digitized? We have a researcher interested in historic bird observations who is considering transcribing our paper copies, but before he does that I figured I would make sure he isn?t re-doing work, since what we have in our archives are marked as copies of what the original observer mailed in to USDA (in 1893?).

> Right now, we have less than thirty people registered. Usually about two hundred people attend. So, we're figuring people are just waiting for a nudge, a sign, a reminder ? It's vital for those of us planning it to get a good head count so if you could get your registration in sooner rather than later, it would be very helpful!

> If anyone would like to give a talk at the meeting this year, please email us a title, brief abstract, and list of authors by July 1, 2015. Talks should be prepared using MS PowerPoint (or similar app), and are generally 20 minutes in length, including time for questions. For past examples of programs and talks, you can consult the ECN website.
