This workshop will explain how IRs naturally align (or misalign) with the goals and work practices of faculty, researchers, and students and review successful strategies for content recruitment. Moreover, the workshop will be framed by the rapidly shifting higher education and open access landscapes, which may propel IRs in unanticipated ways. http://www.educause.edu/E2010/Program/SEM17A --Apple-Mail-17-105249657 Content-Type: text/html; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear cni-announce = subscribers:
