Excerpt:

  "This talk with Maura Marx, Executive Director of the Open Knowledge
Commons, will introduce the OKC, a new organization born out of the
Open Content Alliance and dedicated to advocacy for and development of
an open digital library of human knowledge. In funding start-up
operations for the Knowledge Commons the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation
recognized the need to broaden the community's effectiveness beyond
the research and development phase of mass digitization and to create
a sustainable open digital library for scholarly and public use. This
will be a very interactive session; comments and feedback on the OKC
agenda will be encouraged and welcomed."
