Dear IUFRO members:
IUFRO approved our proposed Task Force on Legacy Forest Data and Related
Resources (T57
https://www.iufro.org/task-forces/t57-legacy-forest-data-and-related-resour…)
The purpose of this Task Force is to contribute to the rescue, curation,
and use of Legacy Forest Information Resources. These resources are
older data and other sources that are useful for forest restoration and
many other purposes. But they are in danger of being lost due to
existing only on paper or older digital formats.
We are also forming a Consortium on Legacy Forest Information
Resources linked to the Task Force, so all can participate who are
interested in legacy forest information resources. There was more
interest than we could accommodate in the Task Force group. If you would
like to participate in the Consortium, please fill out the Google Form
at

and we will invite you to join and contribute to the online discussion
“spaces” (using Google Chat) on various topics. Please also share this
invitation with others.
Thank you!
