I would like to announce the unveiling of the IR Managers Website at
<http://oaresearch.org/>. From its About page:

----

The IR-Managers website, with its associated forum
(<http://oaresearch.org/forum/>) and mailing list
(<http://lists.oaresearch.org/listinfo.cgi/ir-managers-oaresearch.org>),
is a resource and communications tool for librarians, programmers, and
other professionals running digital repositories, with an especial
focus on institutional repositories (IRs) in colleges and universities
in the United States.

Although IRs are a focus of the various movements toward open access
to the research and scholarly literature, this site is not intended
for open-access advocacy. Although IRs are the focus of much technical
investigation, this site is not purely technical. Instead, it is a
gathering-place for people doing the immediate day-to-day tasks
involved in planning, setting up, running, and recruiting content for
IRs.

----

Please spread this announcement to anyone you know who might be
interested, and I look forward to seeing DSpace users on the forum and
the mailing list.

Dorothea Salo
