Digital Library

The Life Discovery Partners each maintain their own collection of teaching resources including ESA’s EcoEd Digital Library (EcoEdDL), BSA’s PlantEd Digital Library (PlantEdDL) and EvoEd Digital Library (EvoEdDL) within the same platform, also known as Life DiscoveryEd Digital Library (LDDL). Each partner collection has it own editorial policies and resource editors. Submitters should determine which collection they would like to submit to. 

Participants accepted to deliver short presentations are expected to contribute their ideas to the LifeDiscoveryEd Digital Library.  Participants who present teaching ideas and resources during the Education Share Fair are strongly encouraged to contribute these as well with the feedback they have received from colleagues.

In Spring-summer 2025,  we are migrating the three digital libraries to QUBEShub. Resources are currently not accessible as bot harvesting issues have compelled us to disable the current platform.   Please stand by for more information.

This project is a partnership of the Ecological Society of America,  the Botanical Society of America and the Society for the Study of Evolution launched in March 2013. This project has been made possible by a major grant from the National Science Foundation.
