The Global Genome Biodiversity Network in collaboration with the European, Middle Eastern and African Society for Biopreservation and Biobanking (ESBB) are developing a knowledge exchange platform for biobanks, researchers and institutions through an online document library. This resource will allow GGBN members and collaborators to perform full text searches, tag publications, and browse information in the following resource categories relevant to biodiversity biobanking: best practice, biobank governance, information and data management systems, standards for sharing samples, business models for biobanks, education and training tools, health and safety, regulation and legislation, research protocols, and curation protocols. A prototype of this platform was launched in July 2016 and is currently being tested by the community for development. Content gaps are being identified and additional use cases are being developed for testing. A prototype of this platform is available under https://library.ggbn.org/ To gain access or if you have any questions please send an email to library@ggbn.org.

The guide on how to use the GGBN Document Library can be found at: https://library.ggbn.org/share/s/5ptKXCYAR6OwII0mcoGjLQ

Technology: We are using Alfresco, an open source document management system which allows full text search, tagging, and versioning.

Mission: Development and expansion of an online knowledge exchange platform specific to biodiversity biobanking


Goals Develop and strategically expand the GGBN Document Library Raise awareness of ABS and the importance of genomic collections
