+
+BioCatalogue is a public, centralised, curated and monitored registry of Life Science Web services which can be used for building workflows. It is a community-oriented Web site where service providers or community experts can register and curate services and users can discover them.
+
+[BioCatalogue][10] provides a single point where services can be annotated and curated by service providers or community experts – it helps service providers publicize and make their services more visible to the community and makes it easier for users to find them.
+
+Web services can be volatile – they change over time and get outdated. 
+BioCatalogue monitors services periodically and provides statistics on their availability and reliability.
+Discover and reuse services in BioCatalogue from Taverna
+
+Taverna has a built-in support for searching service catalogues, such as the BioCatalogue. 
+It enables users to browse a service catalogue and access its full  search options for browsing services and checking their status and availability from inside the Workbench. Discovered services can then be added either directly to workflows or the Taverna Workbench’s Service Panel.
+
+The [service catalogue][11] accessed by Taverna is configurable, 
+so you can set it to a different instance of ‘BioCatalogue’, such as [BiodiversityCatalogue][12].

+A snapshot of the Service Catalogue Perspective in Taverna can be seen in the image below.
