Another computer arrived last week and is presently functioning as the “server” that holds the Specify database(s) and is accessible to various curators in the Biology Department. Through the UPRM “Technology Quote” we were able to secure sufficient funds for a dedicated collection website/database/image server; a corresponding order was put recently in with our administration. Meanwhile, Hernán has overcome a glitch in Specify 6 in order to print out specimen labels and barcodes with the new networked machines.
