Three presenters will discuss collection development and management issues for three types of digital repository (i.e., institutional, disciplinary, and data repositories). They will focus on selection criteria, content recruitment, and the role of digital repositories in scholarly communication.

The presenters are:
Paul Royster, U. of Nebraska-Lincoln (presenter for institutional repository) Dianne McCutcheon, National Library of Medicine (presenter for PubMed Central)

An early Happy Canada Day!
