Turitea Library Training Room, Level 2
Date: Tuesday 14 February 2006
Time: 11am - 12 noon
Hanna Perrett from Bepress (Berkeley Electronic Press) and Dan Hamid from ProQuest will be coming to the Turitea Library to talk about the benefits of an institutional repository and a Digital Commons from an academic staff point-of-view.
The Digital Commons software allows loading of dissertations, research papers, conference papers, pre-prints and even peer-reviewed journals, and making these available over the web to provide maximum visibility for this research. Many of the Australian universities have already developed such a repository.
Examples can also be seen at:
University of Pennyslvania
California Digital Library
University of Surrey
If you would like to attend, please let us know by responding with your name by email to Stephanie Taylor in the Library by 10 February 2006.
