Biological science is one of the top ten social trends, with the twenty-first century defined as the "Age of Biology". One of the central themes of this age is biodiversity. Biodiversity is the richness of life, including the variety of genes within one species through the complex interconnection of all life within an environment. It is necessary to document and understand the world's natural heritage. The management of the many kinds of information associated with this endeavor is biodiversity informatics. There are many efforts developing worldwide to collect and distribute this information in digital collections. Some of these efforts are complementary; some are in conflict, some are just independent. To enhance the utility of this information, it needs to be integrated. There are a number of different kinds of users of the information, including the public and government agencies. The panelists convened for this public forum will discuss different perspective on the construction of global biodiversity digital libraries from the perspective of different goals and uses.

生物科学是社会十大趋势之一，二十一世纪被定义为“生物时代”。 这个时代的中心主题之一是生物多样性。 生物多样性是生命的丰富性，包括一个物种内的基因多样性以及环境中所有生命复杂的相互联系。 有必要记录和了解世界自然遗产。 与这一努力相关的多种信息的管理就是生物多样性信息学。 全世界正在做出许多努力来收集这些信息并将其分发到数字馆藏中。 其中一些努力是互补的；有些是冲突的，有些只是独立的。 为了增强这些信息的实用性，需要对其进行整合。 该信息有许多不同类型的用户，包括公众和政府机构。 本次公共论坛的嘉宾将从不同的目标和用途角度讨论全球生物多样性数字图书馆建设的不同视角。
