MEETING OF THE OPEN ARCHIVES INITIATIVE, WASHINGTON DC JANUARY 23, 2001
=======================================================================

The Open Archives Initiative (http://www.openarchives.org) (OAI)
develops and promotes interoperability standards that aim to facilitate
the efficient dissemination of content.

An Open Meeting to make public the release of the OAI specifications for
metadata harvesting will be held on January 23rd 2001 at the Renaissance
Hotel in Washington DC. The goal of the specifications is to provide an
easy way for data providers to expose their metadata and for service
providers to access that metadata and use it as input to value-added
services.

Complete information on the meeting and a registration form
(registration is required) is available at
http://www.openarchives.org/DC2001/OpenMeeting.html.
