Dear Friends,
It was great seeing many of you in St. Louis at the DuraSpace Summit last week. With your support our organization took significant steps forward in 2018. The 2018 DuraSpace Annual Report is now available with an overview of accomplishments, finances, and global membership. Download the Annual Report here. Also, for the benefit of members who were not in attendance, I'm sharing slides and speaking notes from the Summit.
- President's Welcome, State of DuraSpace, Panel Discussion "Supporting Open Infrastructure in an Evolving Landscape"
- DSpace Report
- Fedora Report
- VIVO Report
This month our annual membership campaign kicks off. I want to thank you in advance for your continued support of DuraSpace as we complete our merger with LYRASIS. We invite our members to attend a few upcoming LYRASIS events that we now have access to as part of the merger:
Events:

In addition, we are pleased to share news of the upcoming North American DSpace Users Meeting to be held September 23 and 24, 2019 at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions or feedback.
