A message from the Open Repositories 2016 Conference organisers

The final deadline for submitting Scholarship Programme applications to the Eleventh International Conference on Open Repositories (@OR2016Dub and #or2016Dub) has been extended until Monday, Feb. 8, 2016. The conference is scheduled to take place June 13-16 in Dublin and is being hosted by Trinity College Dublin, along with collaborators in the Royal Irish Academy and University College Dublin.

The OR2016 Scholarship Programme will enable us to provide support for a small number of full registered places (including the poster reception and banquet) for the conference in Dublin. The programme is open to librarians, repository managers, developers and researchers in digital libraries and related fields. Applicants submitting a paper for the conference will be given priority consideration for funding. Please note that the programme does not cover costs such as accommodation, travel and subsistence. It is anticipated that the applicant's home institution will provide financial support to supplement the OR Scholarship Award. 

* Find out more and submit your application at http://or2016.net/scholarship-programme/ by Feb 8., 2016 *

We look forward to seeing you at OR2016!
