Abstract

This poster was presented at the 7th International Biocuration Conference (ISB2014), University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada, April 6-9, 2014.

The Churchill Community of Knowledge Digital Archive is a YorkSpace Institutional Repository research project led by IRIS (Institute for Research & Innovation in Sustainability) and York University Libraries. Its overall goal is to document, coalesce and mobilize long-term ecological research from Wapusk National Park and, more broadly, Churchill, Manitoba. To date, the project has engaged 10 undergraduate & graduate Biology students in developing metadata for copyright‑cleared digital media & uploading items. Diverse communities, including the public, can access the Open Access archive via Google searches

Description

This poster won an award at the conference at the semi-final judging stage.
