[tdwg-content] Collection Metrics Matter - Your input needed - thanks!

[Deborah Paul]

Hi Everyone,

Survey.
Is it annual reporting time at your institution yet? Wondering what other collections and museums measure? If #collectionMetrics interest you, please take our survey http://bit.ly/museummetrics<https://bit.ly/museummetrics?fbclid=IwAR3NiWLNv1_YACQ7HL5QsK0wNKyn1nMfGIy5QdWwrkCvQpqZ5ctFx1rud7g>. Help us develop an understanding of measurements in use. We'll synthesize what's being measured (or not) in a white paper. From these data, we will also make recommendations, for example, for potential metrics to include in future grant proposals, and a vision for the future of collection metrics (for objects, processes, equipment, space, and staff). The survey should take about 10 minutes to complete.

Metrics Resources.
Find out more about this effort from our recent symposium at Chicago SPNHC 2019. See the wiki for Collecting Measures of Success<https://www.idigbio.org/wiki/index.php/SPNHC2019_Collecting_Measures_of_Success> for the talks (as PDFs).
