What is IEK?
Hi Peri,
IEK is Indigenous Ecological Knowledge. A project with ALA to promote Indigenous knowledge. We are working to add Indigenous names for plants and animals to the ALA.
We are also working with a couple of Indigenous communities to collect and store their knowledge about plants and animals in Profile collections.
Feel free to contact me any time for more information. I am leading this project.
Cheers Nat

My initial thought was that we simply scrape any collection tagged as IEK (a feature already implemented) and generate a table of profile name to matched scientific name. This assumes that the profile editors/owners have been rigourous in following this format (which I guess is an assumption for any implementation of this requirement)... which judging by current examples may not be valid.
In other words some sort of quality control step/gate needs to be included.
As a collection admin I want to run a report to collect all IEK names in a collection To create a names list for indexing and use across ALA products
Requirements:
Questions: Does this mean IEK names must be entered into a system designated field in the collection or could the person running the report determine which field holds the IEK names?
Should the URL for the representative image also be included?
