     Title: DL.org eNewsletter - Summer 2010 now out!

Our latest eNewsletter for Summer 2010 is now available featuring upcoming DL.org events to mark in your diary: 2nd Workshop, 9-10 September @ ECDL2010 in Glasgow, an ICT2010 Networking Session on 29 September in Brussels and our Autumn School in Athens, 3-8 October.

Experts, both inside and outside the project, play a valuable role in delivering insights into Digital Library Interoperability, Best Practices and Modelling Foundations, with the aim of taking Digital Libraries to the next level. This is very much the focus of a series of upcoming DL.org events where we continue to harness expertise in the field and to forge alliances with a diverse set of initiatives for knowledge exchange of mutual interest.

Forthcoming community events to mark in your diary:
