The\u00a0Biodiversity Heritage Library<\/a>\u00a0is pleased to announce that it will serve as a digital content hub within the Digital Public Library of America. The DPLA pilot project, which combines and centralizes links to the collections of participating cultural institutions, launches April 18 in Boston.<\/p>\n

As a result of BHL\u2019s participation as a digital content hub, links to over 111,000 BHL volumes will be available within the DPLA portal. Through the DPLA, the Biodiversity Heritage Library will collaborate with renowned libraries, universities, archives and museums to reach a wide national audience.<\/p>\n

“The Biodiversity Heritage Library is excited to be part of the Digital Public Library of America and to provide an important body of literature that will support the important mission of providing openly available scientific publications,” said Martin Kalfatovic, BHL Program Director.<\/p>\n

Kalfatovic served, along with founding BHL Technical Director Chris Freeland, as first co-chairs of the DPLA\u2019s Technical Aspects Workstream.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are thrilled to have the Biodiversity Heritage Library as a Content Hub,\u201d said Emily Gore, DPLA Director for Content. \u201cThe BHL shares the DPLA’s commitment to open access and global data sharing, and brings rich biodiversity collections from a number of natural history and botanical libraries to the DPLA.\u201d<\/p>\n

About the Digital Public Library of America<\/h4>\n

The Digital Public Library of America brings together the riches of America\u2019s libraries, archives, and museums, and makes them freely available to the world. It strives to contain the full breadth of human expression, from the written word, to works of art and culture, to records of America\u2019s heritage, to the efforts and data of science. The DPLA aims to expand this crucial realm of openly available materials, and make those riches more easily discovered and more widely usable and used.
