eSciDoc Days 2009

FIZ Karlsruhe and Max Planck Digital Library held the eSciDoc Days 2009 on Monday, June 15, and Tuesday, June 16, 2009 at FIZ Karlsruhe, Germany. The eSciDoc Days 2009 were targeted at both existing eSciDoc users and people interested in digital libraries, repository systems, e-Research infrastructures, and scholarly knowledge management.
 
The eSciDoc Days provided extensive information about eSciDoc, the open source e-Research environment. Keynote speakers overviewed the current e-Research developments at an international level. Presentations by eSciDoc team members and by eSciDoc users demonstrated existing eSciDoc Solutions and the underlying eSciDoc Infrastructure.

In parallel tracks, we offered a whole day of hands-on tutorials for developers who are interested in creating their own solutions based on the eSciDoc Infrastructure or intend to re-purpose the existing eSciDoc Solutions.
