The SIRLS Calendar includes official SIRLS (and University of Arizona) deadlines, events, and holidays, and other items of interest to SIRLS students, staff, faculty, and alumni.
A graduate research assistantship is currently available to work on biodiversity informatics on a project to develop semantic web resources for natural history collections. The work will be directed by Dr. Bryan Heidorn, the Director of the School of Information Resources and Library Science (SIRLS). Students must be accepted into the Doctoral Program of SIRLS.
