  4. LATEST NEWS Togo becomes the GBIF network’s newest Voting Participant Togo has changed its status in the GBIF network from Associate to Voting Participant, giving it a direct role in GBIF's governance. • Swiss non-profit Plazi becomes a GBIF Participant Plazi, a Bern-based non-profit organization that supports and promotes linked open-access biodiversity data from digital taxonomic literature, has formally joined the GBIF network as a non- country Participant. • http://www.gbif.org/newsroom/summary | 03 MAR 2015

  7. DATA PUBLISHERS Trend in number of institutions registered as GBIF data publishers 700 650 600 550 500 450 400 350 300 250 200 A sharp rise in the number of data publishers in September 2013 results from institutions choosing to register as separate entities rather than sharing datasets through a single publisher at their national node institution. http://www.gbif.org | 3 MAR 2015
