As announced in the previous edition of Newsline, Edinburgh will be hosting the Seventh International Conference on Open Repositories (OR12) July 9–13 July, 2012.
The theme and title of the 2012 conference at Edinburgh – “Open Services for Open Content: Local In for Global Out” – reflects the current move towards open content, “augmented content”, distributed systems, microservices and data delivery infrastructures. Kevin Ashley, Director of the Digital Curation Centre (DCC) will chair the Programme Committee.
The conference will feature both general conference sessions and user group meetings for the three main open source repository platforms: DSpace, Fedora, and EPrints.
