All volumes of the "Memoirs of Museum Victoria", including those that were #BornDigital, are now freely accessible online @BioDivLibrary - that's every article published between 1906 & 2018! (We'll upload 2019's articles at the end of the year). @museumsvictoria @atlaslivingaust

We can’t possibly address all aspects of #BiodiversityNext, but we hope aftermovie captures the scale, impact, and efforts and give some sneak peeks of exciting next steps. youtu.be/8tAy6SwbdEQ

Looking forward to extending my national role, engaging with museums and herbaria all around Australia, still working with @BioDivLibrary and @bhl_au and also having the opportunity to work internationally at a time when biodiversity research has never mattered more (2/2)
