Dr. Galloway Presents DSpace at MIT

Dr. Patricia Galloway was invited to present the session "Teaching Digital Records Archiving with DSpace at the University of Texas at Austin" at the inagural DSpace Federation User Group Meeting to be held at MIT in Cambridge MA from March 10-11, 2004. DSpace digital repository, originally developed by Hewlett-Packard and MIT, has been implemented by prestigious organizations worldwide such as Cornell University, the University of Toronto, Rochester Institute of Technology, Cambridge University and the University of Edinburg, among others. Representatives of these organizations will be present in this forum to share their experiences and contribute to DSpace improvement.

Dr. Galloway will adress the use of DSpace as a teaching and archiving test-bed tool. Among other projects undertaken by Dr. Galloway and her students are the use of DSpace to archive the ISchool Website and a test-bed to archive digital records from the Austin History Center.
