The Exploiting Geoscience Collections conference will take place on the
12th and 13th May 2008 at the Geological Society of London apartments.
The conference is organized jointly by the Geoscience Information Group
and the Geological Curators Group, both special interest groups of the
Geological Society of London.
Geoscience collections (records, samples and digital data) are a key
resource for research of all types. The compilation, management and
exploitation of these resources are fundamental to a wide range of
research activities. The conference will bring together an international
range of users and custodians of geoscience collections.
