The WeDigBio support team just published a short blog post that positions onsite event hosts for success. Check it out at <a href="https://wedigbio.org/content/ready-make-wedigbio-2018-event-best-ever" class="">https://wedigbio.org/content/ready-make-wedigbio-2018-event-best-ever</a>. And if you are teaching this semester, consider adding WeDigBio activities to your syllabus. Personally, I’ve had a lot of success doing the activities posted at <a href="https://wedigbio.org/content/educational-exercises" class="">https://wedigbio.org/content/educational-exercises</a> in my Field Botany class. The students transcribe 30 professionally done labels then reflect on what about the formatting and content makes the info maximally useful (or less so) for research. Then, they start on their own collections, making their own labels.
