Dec 2 - Digital Repositories Meeting

Daniel's report:

On December 2nd, I met with representatives from some of the digital repositories at UW-Madison. These projects face many of the same problems and challenges as Wiscipedia - how can we optimally attract users, provide them with the information they want, and encourage them to contribute themselves. We are planning an event this spring to teach others how these tools can be useful and how to use them. I look forward to the continuing dialog with these other projects as we start to pin down the specifics of the event, and learning how others deal with the challenges that Wiscipedia will face once we launch.
