This document provides an overview of tools available for contributors to the Encyclopedia of Life (EOL). It describes how the scientific community can assemble and authenticate species information as curators. It also explains how students, teachers and enthusiasts can submit photos, videos and other species data. It outlines tools like LifeDesks for curators and the content partner registry for sharing data with EOL. It details how the public can contribute text, images and videos from sites like Flickr and how non-expert contributions are marked as unreviewed. It describes the role of EOL curators in trusting/untrusting content and adding common names. It provides statistics on the curator network and encourages others to sign up.
