The Case Files Online Exhibit Homepage | The Franklin Institute's Resources for Science Learning This presentation of The Franklin Institute's Case Files highlights individuals from the history of science and technology. It is one of many Resources for Science Learning. Each thematic group of Files presented at left begins with commentary from a distinguished historian of the discipline. About The Case Files The Franklin Institute's Case Files are a unique repository in the history of science and exist as the documentary record of The Franklin Awards program which, since 1824, has recognized outstanding scientific achievement, across all scientific disciplines. Within each Case File is a story, waiting to be told, of scientific enterprise and social circumstances. Likewise, the Institute's annual Awards Week program is a vibrant celebration of scientific enterprise and the scientists at its forefront. About the Committee onScience and the Arts The Franklin Institute's Committee on Science and the Arts (CSA) oversees the Awards program and maintains the Case Files. For K-12 Teachers
A unique collection of thousands of videos, images and fact-files illustrating the world's species Wildscreen's Arkive project was launched in 2003 and grew to become the world's biggest encyclopaedia of life on Earth. With the help of over 7,000 of the world’s best wildlife filmmakers and photographers, conservationists and scientists, Arkive.org featured multi-media fact-files for more than 16,000 endangered species. Freely accessible to everyone, over half a million people every month, from over 200 countries, used Arkive to learn and discover the wonders of the natural world. Since 2013 Wildscreen was unable to raise sufficient funds from trusts, foundations, corporates and individual donors to support the year-round costs of keeping Arkive online. As a small conservation charity, Wildscreen eventually reached the point where it could no longer financially sustain the ongoing costs of keeping Arkive free and online or invest in its much needed development. Therefore, a very hard decision was made to take the www.arkive.org website offline in February 2019.
