OPEN REPOSITORIES 2008: CALL FOR PAPERS & PANELS
http://www.openrepositories.org/2008
Repositories are being deployed in a variety of settings (research,
scholarship, learning, science, cultural heritage) and across a range of
scales (subject, national, regional, institutional, project, lab,
personal). The aim of this conference is to address the technical,
managerial, practical and theoretical issues that arise from diverse
applications of repositories in the increasingly pervasive information
environment.
A programme of papers, panel discussions, poster presentations,
workshops, tutorials and developer coding sessions will bring together
all the key stakeholders in the field. Open source software community
meetings for the major platforms (EPrints, DSpace and Fedora) will also
provide opportunities to advance and co-ordinate the development of
repository installations across the world.
We invite developers, researchers and practitioners to submit papers
describing novel experiences or developments in the construction and use
of repositories. Submissions of up to 4 pages in length are requested in
PDF or HTML format. Detailed submission instructions will be made
available from this page.
