Financial support can be a major obstacle in the digitization and management of small natural history collections. As program director for CSBR, Roland Roberts has a unique perspective on the need for documenting impacts of small collections and how this documentation might be used to secure greater funding opportunities. He will discuss NSF’s CSBR, ADBC, and other grant programs.
