====================================

A major international conference will be taking place at the British
Library Conference Centre in London on 28-29 January 2010:

Subject Repositories: European collaboration in the international context

The conference, which is the first of its kind, will explore the
development of subject repositories worldwide and will see the launch of
Economists Online, the key output of an EC-funded subject repository
project managed by the Nereus consortium of top European economics
libraries. Nereus members will showcase this subject repository in both
plenary and parallel sessions, sharing lessons learned and engaging
delegates in discussions of the main issues such as content recruitment,
search and retrieval services, usage statistics and data sets. The
two-day programme will also put Economists Online into the wider context
and will allow delegates to hear about repository trends across three
continents.

Among the speakers are Chuck Henry, President of the Council on Library
and Information Resources, Clifford Lynch, Director of the Coalition for
Networked Information, Cathrine Harboe-Ree, University Librarian at
Monash University, who led the ARROW project and is involved in leading
the ANDS project, and Christian Zimmerman, Economics professor at the
University of Connecticut. Professor Nick Barr of the London School of
Economics will launch the Economists Online portal.

The delegate fee is £155 and includes attendance at plenary and parallel
sessions, refreshments during breaks, two lunches and VAT. For further
