Wednesday's presentations on Chemical, Sample & Asset Management Tools discussed a variety of aspects of how the safety program collects, organizes and uses data and information related to chemicals and their hazards. The morning's presentations focused on chemical inventories: why institutions need them; some platforms for collecting and reporting the information associated with them; and what they look like "on the ground".

The afternoon presentations took a more global approach to chemical safety information in the lab, discussing the organizational, environmental and information contexts of this data. The last speaker of the day described an emerging innovative approach to collecting "Lessons Learned" information from laboratory events.
