FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

December 1, 2015

The Tenth International Conference on Open Repositories
(http://www.or2015.net/) , OR2015, will take place on June 8-11, 2015
in Indianapolis (Indiana, USA). The organizers are pleased to invite
you to apply to the 2015 Scholarship Programme.

The Open Repositories Steering Committee is delighted to announce that
for OR2015 we will again be running our Scholarship Programme. This
programme will enable us to provide support for a small number of full
registered places for the 2015 conference in Indianapolis. The
programme is open to librarians, repository managers, developers, and
researchers in digital libraries and related fields. Applicants
submitting a paper for the conference will be given priority
consideration for funding (please provide details of your submission
in the application form).

Two questions in the application form ask 'What is it about Open
Repositories that interests you' and 'What do you expect to gain from
attending the conference?' You may wish to prepare answers to these
before completing the form, as the responses to these will be critical
to the success of your application.

Please note: the Scholarship provides funding only for a full
conference registration (including dinner and the poster reception).
It does not cover other costs such as accommodation, travel, and
subsistence. It is anticipated that the applicant's home institution
will provide financial support to supplement the OR Scholarship Award.

Application Form http://goo.gl/Vv03F4 (via GoogleDocs)

The deadline for applications is 30 January 2015.

LOOKING BACK, MOVING FORWARD: OPEN REPOSITORIES AT THE CROSSROADS

OR2015 is the tenth OR conference, and this year's overarching theme
reflects that milestone: Looking Back/Moving Forward: Open
Repositories at the Crossroads. It is an opportunity to reflect on and
to celebrate the transformative changes in repositories, scholarly
communication, and research data over the last decade. More critically
however, it will also help to ensure that open repositories continue
to play a key role in supporting, shaping, and sharing those changes
and an open agenda for research and scholarship.

OR2015 will provide an opportunity to explore the demands and roles
now expected of both repositories and the staff who develop, support,
and manage them - and to prepare them for the challenges of the next
decade. We welcome proposals on this theme, but also on the
theoretical, practical, organizational, or administrative topics
related to digital repositories.
