OSI is providing funding for participants from developing and transition countries to attend the OAI 5 Workshop. More information on attending this event is available at http://oai5.web.cern.ch/oai5/OSI_Grants.html.

The OAI series of workshops is one of the biggest international meetings of technical repository-developers, library Open Access policy formulators, and the funders and researchers that they serve. The program contains a mix of practical tutorials given by experts in the field, presentations from cutting-edge projects and research, posters from the community, breakout discussion groups, and an intense social program which has helped to build a strong network amongst previous participants. The event is almost unique in bringing together these scholarly communication communities and is proud to continue this tradition with the OAI5 workshop in 2007.

This event is sponsored through OSI's Open Access Initiative.
