[Dspace-general] REMINDER TO REGISTER YOUR DSPACE SITE

REMINDER TO REGISTER YOUR DSPACE SITE
====================================

Hello DSpace users,

This is a reminder (a plea!) to register your DSpace site on the DSpace 
wiki, if you haven't already.  An up-to-date listing of the members of the 
DSpace community will provide a more accurate picture of the size and 
characteristics of the community and help projects learn about each 
other.  This information also will be valuable in preparation for the March 
30-31 meeting of the DSpace Federation Governance Advisory Board, an ad hoc 
board being convened to draft a recommendation for governance and funding 
mechanisms to advance the DSpace community.  (Please see the earlier 
announcement distributed on DSpace-General for more information.)

Instructions for editing the DSpace Wiki can be found at 
http://wiki.dspace.org/HelpContents.  It's easy and will only take a few 
minutes!

For those institutions that have not registered your DSpace site, you can 
add your URL at http://wiki.dspace.org/DspaceInstances.

Those that are interested in having your DSpace metadata harvested, list 
your OAI PMH base URL at http://wiki.dspace.org/OaiInstallations.

While you are visiting the wiki, consider updating other areas of the site, 
as appropriate:

If you are planning a DSpace event that you want others to know about, post 
that to http://wiki.dspace.org/DspaceEvents.

If you are working on a DSpace development project that may have broader 
use in the community, please post information about it to 
http://wiki.dspace.org/DspaceProjects, so that others can learn about it.

If you are offering services and support to the DSpace community, let us 
know by listing yourself or your company at 
http://wiki.dspace.org/ServiceProviders.

Finally, if you've seen an article about DSpace or read some interesting 
related news, share it with the community by adding it to 
http://wiki.dspace.org/DspaceNews.

Thanks!!
