Consortium of European Taxonomic Facilities meeting, Copenhagen
Taxonomic Database Working Group, Perth.
The meeting is a 2 day workshop with the purpose of providing, at the very least, an outline Disaster Plan for Museums and Herbaria.
We hope that this outline would provide Museum and Herbarium Directors and Collections Managers the means to create their own disaster Plan with all the appropriate procedures in place to alleviate the effects of a disaster occurene.
The meeting will be on 20 and 21 October at the Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales in Madrid.

An EDIT and SYNTHESYS initiative, hosted by the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, Brussels
On 4 and 5 November, 2008 EDIT and SYNTHESYS held a joint meeting on how and what natural history collections can do to broaden the user base of their collection services.
In this context the meeting brought together 37 participants, collection managers, conventional users, non-conventional users and other stakeholders. The morning programme consisted of presentations on different collections management policies and uses of collections (data and objects). The two afternoon sessions were devoted to discussions in break-out groups and in a plenary setting - addressing how natural history institutions, individual researchers and networks like EDIT and SYNTHESYS can contribute to open-up collections for a broader use.
