Abstract

The Digital Herbarium of the Central Siberian Botanical Garden of SB RAS began to be created on the taxonomic basis in 2017. Completely digitized herbarium specimens of genera Allium , Geranium , Medicago , Rhododendron , family Primulaceae , rare plants of Siberian flora, as well as type specimens of vascular plants stored in NS and NSK collections at the CSBG SB RAS. The digitization results are published in the open access as 6 datasets on the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) portal using the Integrated Publishing Toolkit (IPT) installed on the CSBG server. Digitization is performed on two ObjectScan 1600 scanners (Microtek) using soft ware ScanWizard-Botany and MiVapp-Botany according to the international standards, at 600 dpi, with a barcode, 24-color scale and spatial scale bar. The Digital Herbarium is created as a network resource on biodiversity, the materials of which can be used in GBIF, for taxonomic treatments in the preparation of “Flora of Russia”, in various types of scientific research and educational purposes.
