Taxonomic data is becoming increasingly available on the web, but scientists need a way to access it in a programmatic fashion that\u2019s easy and reproducible. We have developed taxize, an open-source software package (freely available from\n                    <ns4:ext-link xmlns:ns3=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" ext-link-type=\"uri\" ns3:href=\"http:\/\/cran.r-project.org\/web\/packages\/taxize\/index.html\">http:\/\/cran.r-project.org\/web\/packages\/taxize\/index.html<\/ns4:ext-link>\n                    ) for the R language. taxize provides simple, programmatic access to taxonomic data for 13 data sources around the web. We discuss the need for a taxonomic toolbelt in R, and outline a suite of use cases for which taxize is ideally suited (including a full workflow as an appendix). The taxize package facilitates open and reproducible science by allowing taxonomic data collection to be done in the open-source R platform.\n
