Biodiversity Heritage Library Natural Histories
Biodiversity Heritage Library Ernst Mayr Library Bhl operates as a worldwide consortium of natural history, botanical, research, and national libraries working together to digitize the natural history literature held in their collections and make it freely available for open access as part of a global "biodiversity community.". Bhl provides free access to hundreds of thousands of volumes, comprising over 59 million pages, from the 15th 21st centuries. the bhl data repository houses taxonomic treatments, occurrence data, and other biodiversity data liberated from this literature.
Common Pile Biodiversity Heritage Library Discussions The planning workshop resulted in a vision to establish a major corpus of digitized publications on the web drawn from the historical biodiversity literature in our collections. this material will be available for open access and responsible use as a part of a global biodiversity commons. The biodiversity heritage library works collaboratively to make biodiversity literature openly available to the world as part of a global biodiversity community. While natural history books and archives contain information that is critical to studying biodiversity, much of this material is available in only a handful of libraries globally. Against a backdrop of institutional capacity constraints, bhl’s vibrant community of committed partners has built the world’s largest biodiversity library making the historic literature from our most venerated and treasured natural history institutions relevant, accessible, and useful.
