Linbi

The LinBi project, which ran between February 2019 and October 2020, was an EU-funded INEA-CEF project which focused on biodiversity and documentation of the variety of life on Earth. This diversity is preserved in a wide range of formats - books, illustrations, specimen scans, glass plate photographs, sound recordings, herbarium sheets, video and more. LinBi brought together botanists, researchers, the media and the public in a collaborative effort to enhance and support appreciation and use of European biodiversity material.
Via the OpenUp! natural history aggregator, LinBi provided cultural heritage content to Europeana, as detailed in this overview.

* Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg (RBB, Germany) public service broadcaster for the region of Berlin and Brandenburg,
* Royal Botanical Garden of Madrid (RJB-CSIC, Spain) part of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC),
* Naturhistorisches Museum Wien (NHM, Austria) which includes departments of anthropology, botany, geology, mineralogy, karst and caves, palaeontology and zoology,
