CiteBank is BHL's citation repository, featuring open access content contributed by BHL partners and specialists working in the natural sciences. The Biodiversity Heritage Library is a global community of natural history libraries and research institutions who have formed a partnership to digitize and make available the world's biodiversity literature.
