Microsoft supports open access
by Subbiah Arunachalam 06 Aug '06

Friends: Microsoft supports open access and has supported the work of one of OA's leading lights Herbert van de Sompel. Best wishes. Arun ------- From Peter Suber's blog "Open Access News" Beyond OAI interoperability for OA repositories Jeroen Bekaert and Herbert Van de Sompel, Augmenting Interoperability Across Scholarly Repositories. The final report of the meeting of the same title co-sponsored by Microsoft, the Mellon Foundation, CNI, DLF, and JISC (New York, April 20-21, 2006). Undated but apparently released this week. (Thanks to Stuart Weibel, who participated in the meeting for OCLC.) Excerpt: Under guidance of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the Coalition for Networked Information (CNI), the digital Library Federation (DLF), the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) and Microsoft, a meeting was held aimed at identifying concrete steps that could be taken to augment interoperability across heterogeneous scholarly repositories. The specific goal of the meeting was to try and reach a common understanding regarding a data model and a limited set of core, protocol-based repository interfaces that would allow services and downstream applications to interact with heterogeneous repositories in a consistent manner. Such repository interfaces include interfaces that support locating, identifying, harvesting, obtaining and depositing compound digital objects. The meeting was attended by repository software representatives from such repository systems as DSpace, EPrints, and Fedora; content repository representatives from such organizations and companies as ARTStore, arXiv, Citeseer, Harvard Open Content, Nature Publishing; and technology advisors from such projects as aDORe, Pathways, Aquifer, Eduserv Foundation, NSDL and the DSpace Chinese Federation Project.
