Apologies for the cross posting.
Dear DSpace Community,
There will be a 1/2 day DSpace User Group Meeting from 8:30am to 1pm on
November 10, 2010 in Baltimore, Maryland, immediately following the SPARC
Digital Repositories Meeting (http://www.arl.org/sparc/media/10-0513.shtml) on
November 8 and 9.
Based on feedback from the community, the DSpace Global Outreach Committee has
put together the following proposed agenda:
1) Update on 1.7 and beyond
2) Innovative uses of DSpace - call for proposals from the community*
3) @mire projects and products
4) Batch metadata editing tutorial**
5) Structured networking session -- find people or projects of interest to you
Meeting Registration
The meeting is being sponsored by @mire, a Registered DSpace Service Provider,
and is free to anyone who wishes to participate. For planning purposes, please
be sure to register by October 20, 2010. Send an email with your name and
institution to vhollis...@duraspace.org.
*Call for Proposals
We are currently seeking presentation proposals from members of the community
with innovative DSpace projects at their institutions. Proposals should be sent
to vhollis...@duraspace.org by October 13, 2010. Acceptance notification will
be sent by October 20.
**Batch metadata editing tutorial
We are seeking a presenter for this tutorial session. Content has already been
written for a similar tutorial at OR10 and can easily be re-used. If you have
used the batch metadata editing tool in DSpace 1.6 and would like to help
spread the joy of this fantastic tool, please email vhollis...@duraspace.org.
I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible in November!
