In terms of document repositories, India proudly occupies the second place in the number of DSpace installations nationally, after the US. Libraries have played an active role in installing and managing such digital repositories of publications. The Library and Information Science community has always been at the forefront in the world-wide advocacy and implementation of 'Open Access to Information'.

The often discussed challenges include sheer volume, variety of formats, standards for description for retrieval purpose, tools and technology platform and data sharing policies. In order to introduce library and information science professionals to data management using popular open source tools, the Documentation Research and Training Center of the Indian Statistical Institute along with ICSU-CODATA announces an International Training Workshop on Open Data Repositories. The objective of this workshop is to promote and encourage scientific and research organizations to implement lightweight and sustainable 'Open Data Repositories' as an essential first step towards the improved stewardship of valuable data assets.
