Introduction

Blah blah

To answer the question, knowledge of what an ELN does and what it addresses outside of a LIMS is important. An ELN is a modern electronic equivalent of the traditional paper-based laboratory notebook, which historically has served as a collection of scribblings—often with individual, regional, or temporal idiosyncratic styles of "subjectivity, unruliness, and privacy"—concerning the notes and protocols of one or more particular scientific research endeavors.[1][2] In recent times, these scribblings have become more recognizably organized and thorough as a necessary part of presenting all the details of experiments, observations, and analyses such that the results can be replicated and verified.[2][3] As laboratory research has increasingly incorporated more digital sources of data and information from instruments and other sources, labs conducting the research have had to necessarily look at old paper notebook formats as antiquated and incompatible with modern research methods.[2][3]
