[Dspace-general] Soon a new DSpace Installation in Mexico

[Ricardo Beltrán]

Hi everybody,
I'm just writing to announce that an Education and Research Institution 
in Mexico called CIDE (www.cide.edu) will begin in February
the creation of its IR with DSpace, I've kept an eye in DSpace for some 
months and I'm  quite impressed
with this project, thanks to the people that made this possible and open 
source.
The DSpace at CIDE  will start with a collection of polls (polls and 
data sets)  that were made from 1988 to  2000 by the  Office
of the President of Mexico. Just to start we have around 5,000 items 
that will be uploaded during the following six months and
are without any doubt the most valuable collection of public opinion 
research in Mexico.
Later we'll include more collections  as well as magazines, papers, 
syllabus, etc.
Thanks in advance for the help that you will provide me to reach these 
goals.

Best regards.
Ricardo Beltran
