Dr Donatella Castelli, Principal Investigator of the project, says that the DL.org Summer School is an exciting opportunity for participants to learn about emerging methods in Digital Libraries design, development and delivery.

Please provide certificate of university registration. 2) Librarians and digital library researchers with less than five years in theirs position. Please provide a signed letter from your Director specifying how you will benefit from the participation to the DL.org Summer School, and how you will be applying your acquired knowledge in the development of digital libraries. Please send an email to [email protected] (Subject: DL.org Summer School Bursaries) clearly indicating your name, institution, country and email address, and attaching copy of the requested documentation. The DL.org Summer School Organisational Committee will evaluate the received proposals and assign the tuition bursaries accordingly. Summer School Program Participation in the DL.org Summer School (http://www.dlorg.eu/index.php/summer-school/agenda ) will assist attendees in understanding how to address interoperability challenges, approaches and techniques within the context of digital libraries and digital repositories. In addition, the DL.org Summer School will offer participants the opportunity to network with other researchers, international experts, and practitioners across disciplinary and national boundaries. Audience and speakers We hope that the audience will be mainly practitioners, researchers and professionals with an interest in the topic of digital library interoperability. Internationally established lecturers (http://www.dlorg.eu/index.php/summer-school/lecturers ) will lead each one half-day session and most will be available through the week for further discussion. Venue The Summer School takes place at the Grand Hotel Golf in Tirrenia (Pisa), Italy during the week beginning 6 June 2010. This will give participants the opportunity to network and exchange ideas among themselves and with the lecturers, who are expected to stay for most of the duration of the Summer School.
