Hosted Repository Software: A seminar for repository managers Thursday
27th March 2008, 10.00am - 1.00pm SPLASH, University of Surrey,
Guildford
Do you use one of the following products?
* Digital Commons from BePress
* Digitool from Ex Libris
* E-Prints Services
* Fedora/VITAL
* IntraLibrary from Intrallect
* Open Repository from BioMed Central
Do you want to meet other repository managers who are using the same
software as you? If the answer is yes then this event is for you!
The Repositories Support Project is facilitating a half day event aimed
specifically at repository managers who work with hosted or commercial
software solutions. The programme will contain a case study from the
University of Surrey exploring some of the unique issues that face
repository managers in this situation, along with plenty of opportunity
for networking and discussion as part of both the wider group and in
software based clusters.
As with all RSP events the day will be offered at no-cost to attendees.
There are no limits on the number of delegates who are welcome to attend
from any one institution although we recommend that to take the best
advantage of the event participants should be actively using, or about
to take on, one of the software solutions listed above.
