The Fedora community is progressing from one of lots of initial experiments with Fedora, to one with a number of more stable implementations. Also repository-based environments are increasingly embedding in the whole research life-cycle and integrate with research-specific tools. This session will share existing experiences on repository-aware tools for scholarship and research, as well as (vice versa) repository-based research environments.
The half-day will comprise a series of short presentations from those working in the field of supporting researchers using repositories, reporting both work undertaken and directions that are emerging based on local experience. Contribution is coming primarily from the Fedora community, but there will also be input from DSpace and EPrints perspectives to highlight the common need to understand how repository-based environments can best support research.
The draft programme is as follows:
* Matthias Razum, eSciDoc
* Andrew Treloar, Australian National Data Services (ANDS)
* Chris Awre, University of Hull - The Hydra initiative: underpinning repository interaction for research support
* Mark Hedges, Centre for eResearch, King's College London
* James Toon, National Library of Scotland
* Andreas Hense,
* EPrints, University of Southampton
* Stewart MacDonald, University of Edinburgh
2. *Fedora content modeling*
