The Global Genome Biodiversity Network in collaboration with [https://www.cryoarks.org/ CryoArks] and the [https://esbb.org/ European, Middle Eastern and African Society for Biopreservation and Biobanking (ESBB)] has developed an online document library for biodiversity biobanking. This resource allows users to perform full text searches, tag publications, and browse information across the following biobanking categories: best practices, governance and business models, information and data management systems, standards for sharing samples, education and training tools, health and safety, regulation and legislation, and research and curation protocols.
