Today, in an innovative project to curate the data and make them publically available, the records are being scanned and placed on the internet, where volunteers worldwide transcribe these records and add them into a database for analysis.” | *[http://www.pwrc.usgs.gov/bpp/ USGS North American Bird Phenology Program] <br>“The North American Bird Phenology Program… exists now as a historic collection of six million migration card observations.
