Internet2 Member Meeting, Arlington VA

Grace Agnew, Associate University Librarian for Digital Systems, Rutgers University, will present, “From Statewide cyberinfrastructure to a Virtual Organization: Current Progress and Next Steps for New Jersey” at the Internet2 Member Meeting, April 27-29 2009.

This proposal will update Internet2 on the statewide Shibboleth implementation and digital video collection efforts of the grant-funded NJVid statewide digital video portal project and also talk about next steps to create seamless information access and collaborative workflows, for a statewide “virtual organization” for statewide information delivery. Next steps include leveraging the statewide Fedora repository and tools implemented via NJVid and developing statewide collaborative workflows for the selection, organization and delivery of digital information through the Mellon-funded OLE (Online Library Environment)project, an open source library workflow platform that uses service oriented architecture to integrate library services and workflows into the higher education enterprise architecture
