9628764 Krishtalka Currently, there is no single institution, agency, society or group with the mission to assist biological collections with the task of making biodiversity information freely and seamlessly available to science and society. this mission will require technical expertise, political leadership and scientific vision, but particularly the determination and will for the community to undertake this effort together. The compelling need for such a national biodiversity information enterprise has been established in numerous national and international reports. The purpose of this workshop award is to hold a planning and development meeting for the biological collections based community and related disciplines. IN an earlier workshop, the group proposed the establishment of the US Organization for Biodiversity Information with the following mission statement, "Create or enhance the infrastructure and tools necessary to organize information derived from biological collections and associated biodiversity enterprises into a maximally accessible form to meet the needs of society and science." Funding for this award will allow participants to consider the promise of such a community-based organization to achieve this mission, the changing nature of information, the technologically powerful solutions that can unite the community's vast biodiversity information and link it with other disciplines, and the issues and protocols of such an organizations structure, function, and funding. This workshop is important for the development of the US-OBI goals, as well as the eventual effort to make accessible the vast quantity of information in the world's specimen based collections. In addition, this effort is important to gather a broad based, community endorsement of the goals of US-OBI.

9628764 Krishtalka 目前，没有任何一个机构、机构、社会或团体肩负着协助生物收藏的使命，向科学和社会免费、无缝地提供生物多样性信息。这一使命将需要技术专长、政治领导力和科学远见，但尤其需要社会共同开展这项努力的决心和意愿。许多国家和国际报告都证实了对这样一个国家生物多样性信息事业的迫切需要。该研讨会奖项的目的是为基于生物保藏的社区和相关学科举办一次规划和发展会议。在早些时候的一次研讨会上，该组织提议成立美国生物多样性信息组织，其使命宣言如下：“创建或增强必要的基础设施和工具，以将来自生物收藏和相关生物多样性企业的信息组织成最大限度地可访问的形式，以满足社会和科学的需求。”该奖项的资助将使参与者能够考虑这样一个以社区为基础的组织实现这一使命的承诺、信息不断变化的性质、能够整合社区庞大的生物多样性信息并将其与其他学科联系起来的技术强大的解决方案，以及这样一个组织的结构、职能和资金的问题和协议。 本次研讨会对于制定 US-OBI 目标以及最终为获取世界标本馆藏中的大量信息而做出的努力非常重要。此外，这项工作对于获得广泛的社区对 US-OBI 目标的认可也很重要。
