The Fedora Project is pleased to announce that Fedora Camp in NYC, hosted by
Columbia University Libraries, will be offered at Columbia University’s Butler
Library in New York City November 28-30, 2016.
Fedora is the robust, modular, open source repository platform for the
management and dissemination of digital content. Fedora 4, the latest
production version of Fedora, features vast improvements in scalability, linked
data capabilities, research data support, modularity, ease of use and more.
Fedora Camp offers everyone a chance to dive in and learn all about Fedora 4.
Training will begin with the basics and build toward more advanced concepts–no
prior Fedora 4 experience is required. Participants can expect to come away
with a deep dive Fedora 4 learning experience coupled with multiple
opportunities for applying hands-on techniques working with experienced
trainers and Fedora gurus.
Previous Fedora Camps include the inaugural camp [1] held at Duke University
and the most recent, West Coast Camp [2] held at CalTech. The camp curriculum
will provide a comprehensive overview of Fedora 4 by exploring such topics as:
• Core features
• Integrated features
• Data modeling and linked data
• Hydra and Islandora
• Migrating to Fedora 4
• Deploying Fedora 4 in production
The curriculum will be delivered by a knowledgeable team of instructors from
the Fedora community.
