An American-styled lab book system has now been implemented for the Lincoln-based CoRE-funded researchers (Post docs and students), and Centre-aligned projects will soon be added to the system. Managed by the Lincoln University library, the system involves a centrally archived collection of lab books which may be borrowed from the library in order for researchers to record experiments. Using the books involves writing detailed descriptions of the work conducted, and then having someone verify the pages on a weekly-fortnightly basis.

new presence on the Interenet for the Centre at www.bioprotectorgnz.org.nz went live on Friday, 14th May, 2004. Whilst initially an information site for interested parties and bioprotectorgnz researchers, allowing them to the see the Centre's activities as a whole, the site is designed to grow in size and scope over time. Research progress, findings and activities of CoRE-Funded projects will posted, along with general centre news and bioprotectorgnz vacancies. Notices of workshops and conferences of interest to bioprotectorgnz members will also appear.
