Get Involved

How can you help?
Discover Life seeks help from people in all walks of life. Please contact us if you wish to contribute. For example, you can help as
  • teachers & study site organizers
    We are building a network of research sites at field stations, schools, parks, and other places to study of the impact of climate change and other factors on biodiversity. Teachers and other individuals who wish to participate in our projects should contact our outreach coordinator.

  • photographers
    We hope to share high-quality images for a million species through the generosity of our photographers around the world. If you wish to submit photographs, please email Becka Walcott dl@discoverlife.org. She will help you upload your images. You retain full ownership and copyright to them.

  • scientific contributors
    Researchers who wish to contribute information such as taxonomic authority lists, catalogs, specimen level databases for mapping, or identification guides should email John Pickering pick@discoverlife.org. Depending on their scope, they may be submitted to our reviewed electronic publication, the Proceedings of Life.

  • websites
    For technical details of how to use Discover Life's content see Web services, particularly "Customizing navigation bars" to return users to your site. If you wish us to index your taxon pages and link to them, please contact us so that we can customize a solution to include your content. Depending on the layout of your site, we may need you to create an index of your site's pages.
