[Sigiii-l] OR2015 NEWS: Preliminary Program Information Now Available; Remember to Register and Reserve Your Hotel Room

[Imma Subirats]

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that information on accepted paper, panel,
and 24x7 sessions at Open Repositories 2015 is now available on the
OR2015 conference website: http://www.or2015.net/

Open Repositories 2015, taking place in Indianapolis on June 8-11,
received an unprecedented number of proposals this year, with 240
proposals submitted across the conference and interest group tracks.
This has also been the most selective Open Repositories, and only 38%
of conference paper and panels were accepted in the main track. We
have accepted 6 panels, 21 24x7’s (including Rants and Raves), 37
papers and 60 posters which will all give an exciting snapshot of work
in the open repositories community.

The Program Committee would like to take this opportunity to again
thank all of our reviewers who took time to review workshops, papers,
panels, 24x7’s and posters. Please stay tuned for more information on
the schedule and interest group presentations, which we will post
later in April.

** Reminder: Register and reserve your hotel room **

Online registration for OR2015 is currently open, and participants can
save $50 by registering by May 8. Special negotiated room rates at the
conference hotel are available until May 16. For more information,

We look forward to seeing you at OR2015!
