| The mission and goal of the 'Laboratory Informatics Encyclopedia', otherwise known as [[LIMS]] Wiki, is to provide the [[LIMS community]] with an organized, documented, up-to-date, standardized body of knowledge (BOK) regarding all aspects of a [[Laboratory information management system|laboratory information management system]] (LIMS). The value and success of the LIMS Wiki (like any community wiki) is dependent upon the [[LIMS community]] contributing their vast knowledge through the creation of relevant articles and editing of existing articles where knowledge is absent.

| The explosion of the field of [[Laboratory informatics|laboratory informatics]] paired with the vast number of [[LIMS vendor]]s and products — as well as LIMS' increased scope well beyond its original purpose of [[sample]] management to just about all facets of [[laboratory]] operations — has resulted in a wealth and variety of information not easily comprehended. This potential confusion frustrates [[LIMS]] customers and makes the already challenging task of successfully implementing and managing a [[LIMS]] even more difficult. It will be of great value to all in the community (including [[vendors]], users, and [[consultant]]s) to have a common vocabulary and understanding to facilitate communication, comparison, and product integration, providing maximum value to labs and maximum opportunity to [[LIMS vendors]] and [[consultants]].
