Terry Reese | The Ohio State University | Head of Digital Initiatives | Terry Reese is the Head of Digital Initiatives at The Ohio State University Libraries with responsibility for the planning and development of digital libraries architecture and infrastructure. He has extensive experience with a variety of repository systems, with research interests grounded in metadata and linked data issues. The Ohio State University Libraries has begun utilizing Fedora 4 as part of its core management and preservation system for digital content as a key piece of our new digital infrastructure, and back end to our new image management system in the libraries. | |||
Julie Allinson | University of York | Digital Library Manager | Julie has been a long time advocate for Fedora and an active member of the Fedora UK&I user group. She has also ran the SWORD project looking at repository interoperability and has been recently working on a Linked data project so I think can make a valuable contribution to the future of the Fedora project. The University of York has been committed to Fedora since 2008 and has a production repository with many thousands of objects. We are hoping to shortly announce a move to the Hydra solution layer in the near future. | |||

Chris Awre | University of Hull | Head of Information Management | I have worked with Fedora for over 10 years, and have experienced its evolution over this time, working with colleagues at Hull to inform its development as we can. I have co-chaired with Richard Green the Fedora UK & Ireland user group over that time, linking up with wider European Fedora usage where feasible. As a long-standing Hydra adopter, I am keen to ensure the long-term viability of Fedora and its ability to serve different frameworks needs such as Hydra's. | |||
