**Please excuse cross posting**

*The 13th International Conference on Open Repositories, OR2018, will be
held on June 4th-7th, 2018 in Bozeman, Montana, USA. *


Call for papers and scholarships have been extended until the 15th January
2018.


The theme for Open Repositories 2018 is Sustaining Open.



http://www.or2018.net/call-for-papers/



Research and Cultural Heritage communities have embraced the idea of Open;
open communities, open source software, open data, scholarly
communications, and open access publications and collections. These
projects and communities require different modes of thinking and resourcing
than purchasing vended products.  While open may be the way forward,
mitigating fatigue, finding sustainable funding, and building flexible
digital repository platforms is something most of us are striving for.
Submissions this year should focus on the how, why, and what it will take
to make open sustainable.



While not limited to the below topics, we’re focusing our attention on
issues around the sustainability of:

·  Open source software - sustainability of software developed locally and
large open source systems, legacy code

·  Community - reaching out to new audiences, developing a community,
governance

·  Content - research data, digital preservation, persistent urls, archiving

·  Teams/People - staff and knowledge within the community, contingency
planning, training and development, and succession planning

·  Projects - sustainability of projects beyond the grant, maturing
communities

·  Infrastructure/Integrations - integrations between systems, changing
technical environments

·  Policy - national, international, local and community policy and
decisions

·  Challenges of sustainability - funding, local, technical, community

·  Rights and Copyright - including Data Protection, sharing and storing of
content

·  Reuse, standards, and reproducibility - for example: software, data,
content types

·  New open technologies and standards


Submission Process

Accepted proposals in all categories will be made available through the
conference’s web site https://www.conftool.net/or2018, and later they and
associated materials will be made available in an open repository. Some
conference sessions may be live streamed or recorded, then made publicly
available.



*Interest Groups*

This year there are no separate interest groups for the different
repository systems, instead if your 24x7 or presentation submission is
related to a specific repository system please indicate so in your proposal.
Presentations

Presentation proposals are expected to be two to four pages (see below
for submission
templates). Successful submissions in past years have typically described
work relevant to a wide audience and applicable beyond a single software
system.



Presentations are 30 minutes long including questions.
Panels

Panel proposals are expected to be two to four pages (see below for submission
templates). Successful submissions in past years have typically described
work relevant to a wide audience and applicable beyond a single software
system. All panels are expected to include at least some degree of
diversity in viewpoints and personal background of the panelists. Panel
sessions are expected to include a short presentation from each panel
member followed by a discussion. Panels may take an entire session or may
be combined with another submission.



Panels can be 45 or 90 minutes long.



*Discussion Question and Answer*

Discussion Q&A proposals are expected to be two to four pages (see below for
 submission templates). This is your opportunity to suggest members of the
community to join in a Q&A discussion on various proposed topics.  This is
meant to be a deep-dive into why a decision was made, how projects got
started, where an idea came from, or anything else that you want to know
more about. Imagine this as a 45 - 90 minute grilling at a cocktail party
but on a stage in front of your peers. Q&As may take an entire session or
may be combined with another submission. This session will not be video
recorded.



Discussion Q&A can be 45 or 90 minutes long.
24×7 Presentations

24×7 presentations are 7 minute presentations comprising no more than 24
slides. Successful 24x7 presentations have a clear focus on one or a few
ideas and a narrower  focus than a 25 minute presentation. Similar to Pecha
Kuchas <https://www.pechakucha.org/presentations> or Lightning Talks, these
24×7 presentations will be grouped into blocks based on conference themes,
with each block followed by a moderated question and answer session
involving the audience and all block presenters. This format will provide
conference goers with a fast-paced survey of like work across many
institutions. Proposals for 24×7 presentations should be one to two pages
(see below for submission templates).



24x7 presentations are 7 minutes long.
Posters

We invite one-page proposals for posters that showcase current work (see
below for submission templates). OR2018 will feature physical posters only.
Posters will be on display throughout the conference. Instructions for
preparing
the posters will be distributed to authors of accepted poster proposals
prior to the conference. Poster submitters will be expected to give a
one-minute teaser to encourage visitors to their poster during the
conference.



Posters presentations will be 1 minute.



*Developer Track: Top Tips, Cunning Code and Imaginative Innovation*

Each year a significant proportion of the delegates at Open Repositories
are software developers who work on repository software or related
services. OR2018 will feature a Developer Track that will provide a focus
for showcasing work and exchanging ideas.

Building on the success of previous Developer Tracks, where we encouraged
live hacking and audience participation, we invite members of the technical
community to share the features, systems, tools and best practices that are
important to you (see below for submission templates).



The 15 minute presentations can be as informal as you like, but we
encourage live demonstrations, tours of code repositories, examples of cool
features, and the unique viewpoints that so many members of our community
possess. Proposals should be one to two pages, including a title, a brief
outline of what will be shared with the community, and technologies
covered. Developers are also encouraged to contribute to the other tracks.



Developer Track presentations are 15 minutes including questions.
Ideas Challenge

OR2018 will also again include the popular Ideas Challenge. Taking part in
this competition provides an opportunity to take an active role in
repository innovation, in collaboration with your peers and in pursuit of
prizes. The Ideas Challenge is open to all conference attendees. Further
details and guidance on the Ideas Challenge will be forthcoming closer to
the conference.
Workshops and tutorials

The first day of Open Repositories will be dedicated to workshops and
tutorials.

One to two-page proposals addressing theoretical or practical issues around
digital repositories are welcomed. See below for Proposal Templates; please
address the following in your proposal:

·  The subject of the event and what knowledge you intend to convey

·  Length of session (90 minutes, 3 hours or a whole day)

·  A brief statement on the learning outcomes from the session

·  The target audience for your session and how many attendees you plan to
accommodate

·  Technology and facility requirements

·  Any other supplies or support required

·  Anything else you believe is pertinent to carrying out the session



Please note, the program committee may consider submissions for other
tracks and formats, as appropriate.
Submission System

https://www.conftool.net/or2018
Review Process

All submissions will be peer reviewed and evaluated according to the
criteria outlined in the call for proposals, including quality of content,
significance, originality, and thematic fit.
Code of Conduct

The OR2018 Code of Conduct and Anti-Harassment Policy are available at
http://or2018.net/code-of-conduct/ <http://or2017.net/code-of-conduct/>.
Scholarship Programme

OR2018 will again run a Scholarship Programme which will enable us to
provide support for a small number of full registered places (including the
poster reception and conference dinner) for the conference in Bozeman. The
programme is open to librarians, repository managers, developers and
researchers in digital libraries and related fields. Applicants submitting
a proposal for the conference will be given priority consideration for funding.
Please note that the programme does not cover costs such as accommodation,
travel and subsistence. It is anticipated that the applicant’s home
institution will provide financial support to supplement the OR Scholarship
Award. Full details and an application form will shortly be available on
the conference website.
