Today, I had been to my alma mater (read Don Bosco Institute of Technology) to conduct an introductory seminar on DSpace - A digital repostitory system and its prospects as a part of the CRAVE initiative.
It was intersting bcoz:
- always feels gr8 to be back in college.
- interesting to address an entusiastic batch of students eager to know more.
Just a little about DSpace and why DSpace:
- For a quick example to which everyone can relate to, consider the final year theses the college produces at the end of each year. Is there a way students can surf through all the previous works? How about the research papers, publications etc. the students and professors attempt to write. Most of them are lost. A digital repository will enable the institution to manage its intellectual property. To read more about DSpace try www.dspace.org
- Personally I would like to get my college name here > DSpace Instances Worldwide
- More about the seminar and various topics discussed on the CRAVE wiki [not updated yet]
