The Open Library Environment Project invites you to a 1.5 day Regional Design Workshop at the Georgia Institute of Technology. The purpose of this workshop is to provide a forum for representatives of local research libraries and related institutions to discuss our work surrounding the current Integrated Library System and ideas on what this type of core system should incorporate.

Participation is open to any members of the research library community who work with the Integrated Library System either on a day to day basis or from a higher level. OLE will be developed as an open source library environment that meets the needs of research libraries. While care will be taken to design an open and flexible system that is useful for other types of libraries, such as public libraries, the focus of the project in this early stage is on research libraries.

Due to space limitations, registration is limited to 40 participants.

Participants will be notified with further details. There is no cost for attendance to this workshop other than your travel related expenses.
