Tufts University Digital Collections & Archives and UIT Academic Technology present a one-day regional Fedora conference.
July 20, 2010
9 AM-5 PM
This day-long conference in Massachusetts will give us all an opportunity to hear from other Fedora users. More importantly, it will give us an opportunity to talk to each other and swap ideas and thoughts about the way we use Fedora Commons.
Some features of the event will include:
* Thornton Staples of DuraSpace will be present to give an overview of DuraSpace, Fedora, and DuraCloud.
* Mark Leggott of the University of Prince Edward Island will talk about Islandora, the Fedora and Drupal-based tool which underlies systems such as Repository-in-a-Box.
* Birds of a Feather sessions. The shape of these is up to *you*.
* Opportunities to share your projects and concerns with other Fedora users.
Register online by 30 June 2010 at

The conference will be held in the heart of Boston's Chinatown, walking distance to many excellent restaurants. Conference registrants will receive updates as the program takes shape.
