A major international conference will be taking place at the British Library
Conference Centre in London on 28-29 January 2010:
Subject Repositories: European collaboration in the international context
The conference, which is the first of its kind, will explore the development of
subject repositories worldwide and will see the launch of Economists Online,
the key output of an EC-funded subject repository project managed by the Nereus
consortium of top European economics libraries. Nereus members will showcase
this subject repository in both plenary and parallel sessions, sharing lessons
learned and engaging delegates in discussions of the main issues such as
content recruitment, search and retrieval services, usage statistics and data
sets. The two-day programme will also put Economists Online into the wider
context and will allow delegates to hear about repository trends across three
continents.
Among the speakers are Chuck Henry, President of the Council on Library and
Information Resources, Clifford Lynch, Director of the Coalition for Networked
Information, Cathrine Harboe-Ree, University Librarian at Monash University,
who led the ARROW project and is involved in leading the ANDS project, and
Christian Zimmerman, Economics professor at the University of Connecticut.
Professor Nick Barr of the London School of Economics will launch the
Economists Online portal.
The delegate fee is £155 (approximately €175) and includes attendance at
plenary and parallel sessions, refreshments during breaks, two lunches and VAT.
