[Nhcoll-l] People Data for Inclusion by Connecting Scientists and Specimens: Workshop with Stipends at BOTANY 2023

[Deborah Paul]

**Hi NHCOLL peeps,

You've got people data in your collections databases, yes? And you 
probably know a lot about some of them (that may or may not be written 
down) and maybe very little about others? This workshop opportunity 
focuses on botany collectors and collections and revealing hidden 
figures. The model itself works for any collection type and can help you 
know more about what makes your collections/collectors unique and helps 
you discover data use and expertise while fostering reach and impact of 
your own vouchered collections if they are published to GBIF. Intrigued? 
... Please also share with your colleagues and students who might not be 
here on the listserv.

          At the Botany2023 conference in Boise, Idaho an NSF-sponsored
          workshop and symposium, "Supporting inclusive and sustainable
          research infrastructure for systematics (SISRIS) by connecting
          scientists and their specimens" will be held. More details and
          application for July 23 workshop participation (in-person and
          online seats) here: https://tinyurl.com/3jmaztfa

Do you make or use herbarium specimens as part of your research? Are you 
interested in learning how to better document your botanical expertise 
and contributions to collections-based research by using the latest 
web-based informatics tools? Are you curious as to how these tools may 
also be used to advance research, improve collections management as well 
as build a more inclusive historical record by revealing hidden figures 
in botany? If so, please consider applying to attend the half-day SISRIS 
workshop at Botany2023 Sunday July 23. We encourage individuals from all 
career-stages and institution types to apply. Stipends for participation 
are available to defray the cost of attending, including dependent-care, 
sponsored by the US National Science Foundation. Attendance capped at 30 
in-person and 10 online participants. For further details and
