Open Repositories 2007 will continue the very successful format of Open
User Group meetings for DSpace, Fedora, and EPrints, followed by general
conference sessions that cover cross-cutting and overarching issues.
This year, the user groups will partition their programs into Plenary,
Technical Issues, and Management Issues, and the partitions will be
staggered so that IT directors can attend all plenary sessions and
technical staff can attend all technical sessions. The User Group
meetings are open to all attendees.
The general conference program will be organized around the following
themes:
* Open access and strategic context (social and technical) for
repositories
* Value- added services to enhance particular repositories
* Achieving interoperability for repositories
* Repositories and IT infrastructure
* Open source software
* Digital preservation
* Use cases for repositories
* Modeling for digital objects and repositories
* Management and policy issues
* Metrics
OR07 is pleased to announce the keynote speakers for the general
conference. The opening keynote for the general conference will be given
by James L. Hilton, Vice President and Chief Information Officer at the
University of Virginia. The closing keynote will be given by Tony Hey,
Corporate Vice President for Technical Computing at Microsoft.
