The first annual Islandora Camp will take place this year on July 22-23 in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. Islandora is the open source digital asset management framework system developed at the University of Prince Edward Island (UPEI) and the University’s Robertson Library team. Hosted by UPEI, the camp is being held with the goal “to build the Islandora (and of course Drupal and Fedora) ecosystem by assembling interested developers, repository managers and all manner of rogues in a place where the ideas and energy can flow.”
The two day event takes place shortly before another open source related event, the Red Island Repository Institute‘s 3rd annual Fedora Summer Institute conference, scheduled for July 26-30, 2010.
