The first RepNet User Group meeting will be held tomorrow Jan 16th at EDINA in Edinburgh. This User Group is composed of IR managers from different institutions who engaged with the RepNet for providing their direct feedback on new repository features and tools designed by the project. HEIs represented in the RepNet User Group include University of St Andrews, University of Glasgow, UCL, Cranfield University, Leeds Metropolitan University, University of Cambridge and University of Warwick.

The all-morning meeting will provide an overview of the current project state and worklines, plus an insight on new repository features and services under consideration. The meeting will also host a first presentation of the LOCKSS disaster recovery service the RepNet is examining as a potential candidate for its service catalogue.
