[Dspace-general] user group meetings and training

[Michele Kimpton]

Hi Eric,

There are several meetings and trainings coming up.  You can find them  
all listed with more detail on the website at www.dspace.org, there is  
a calender right on the home page where we try to keep track of all  
pertinent DSpace related activities.

Here are some key ones to consider:
-The next DSpace user group meeting is in Southhampton, UK April 3,4   
It is part of the OR2008 meeting, so there will be many people and  
presentations regarding repositories.  However there is 1.5 days  
dedicated to a DSpace user group meeting
-There will also be a meeting April 27-April 30 in Minnesota sponsored  
by JA-SIG  "Open source solutions for higher education"  During the  
Sunday-there will be DSpace training on 1.5 and designing with Manakin  
( for the developer community).
-There is also another technical and user training planned at JCDL  
upcoming in Pittsburgh in June 2008.

You can also find training materials to get you started on DSpace at  
our website at:
http://www.dspace.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogcategory&id=61&Itemid=151

NITLE also offers training on a regular basis geared toward repository  
managers and administrators.  If you are a member of NITLE you can  
participate and we are working with them to see if they will allow  
members of the community to join in.

Hope that helps as a start!

Michele
