<p class=MsoNormal>The over-arching nature of this one-day workshop will appeal
to a broad array of communities, including librarians, scientists/researchers,
technologists, information professionals, both managerial and content
providers, publishers, and futurists – anyone who is concerned with
ensuring access to the record of science, both today and in the future!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='color:#003366'><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p>
<p class=MsoNoSpacing>Clifford Lynch, Executive Director of the Coalition for
Networked Information, will open the day with a thoughtful and high-level
perspective of the current repository landscape - the various types that have
emerged and the different, yet synergistic missions served by libraries,
archives and repositories. Following his perspective will be a series of case
studies given by established repositories from around the globe. These studies
will provide real-life examples of how and why each repository was developed,
how they operate, and how they are handling the diverse issues facing<i> all</i>
repositories, whether they be institutional or national, data-oriented or
subject-oriented, public or private -<i> </i>issues such as <span
style='color:black'>interoperability,</span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
color:black'> </span><span style='color:black'>standards,</span><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;color:black'> </span><span style='color:black'>scope,</span><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;color:black'> </span><span style='color:black'>user

style='font-size:10.0pt;color:black'> </span><span style='color:black'>costs
and sustainability, level of openness (access), and the evolution of
digital formats.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>A third session will take a look at two initiatives that
directly support the mission of repositories through the development of unique
identifiers. These identifiers will play a major role in ensuring ease of
access to the record of science. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The day will close with a summary wrap-up followed by a
facilitated discussion on such key challenges as interoperability, information
sharing, and collaboration across repositories. What action is required <i>now</i>
to build a secure foundation for the preservation and ease<i> </i>of access to
the growing mass of scientific output? Follow-up sessions may be scheduled
depending upon the outcome of today’s workshop. So plan on joining us
and add <i>your </i>voice in the development of the future role of
repositories.<o:p></o:p></p>

CENDI, the Federal STI Managers Group, was formally created in 1985 when a
Memorandum of Understanding was signed by four charter U.S. government agencies
(Commerce, Energy, NASA, and Defense). From this small core of STI managers,
CENDI has grown to its current membership of 12 major science agencies involved
in the dissemination and long-term management of scientific and technical
information.<o:p></o:p></p>
