Subject: [CNI-ANNOUNCE] Talks from May SURF-JISC-CNI Institutional
Repositories Conference

In May, CNI partnered with JISC in the UK and SURF in the Netherlands 
to hold a two-day invitational meeting in Amsterdam that looked at 
the state of deployment of institutional repositories across a number 
of nations. Concurrent with this meeting, SURF also made the 
announcement of the launch of its Cream of Science project (see 
www.creamofscience.org). The overheads that accompanied talks given 
at the meeting are now available at

(There's nothing for my own talk because I didn't use overheads; I 
hope to write up the talk in the near future.) You can find general 
background on the meeting at:

One of the major activities associated wtih the meeting was the 
collection of national reports on the deployment of institutional 
repositories. This data is currently being complied and should be 
available by the end of the month. I will post an announcement to 
CNI-announce when this information is online.
