  abstract = {This workshop will provide an analysis of the current state of development of institutional
repositories across Europe, how this compares to initiatives in the rest of the world and will
explain how the DRIVER project will promote and support the development of an integrated
European repository network. The workshop will provide information on DRIVER technological
developments and services and on the DRIVER test bed of repositories being used to test DRIVER
software and services. The success of the DRIVER project depends, not just on the technical
integration and enhancement of a European repository network, but also on the involvement and
participation of all those actively involved in European research or in its publication,
dissemination or access. Hence DRIVER has an active advocacy and community building programme
to address and support key stakeholder groups in Europe. DRIVER draws on existing services
within the DRIVER partnership such as OpenDOAR and SHERPA/RoMEO as well as developing new
services such as the Mentor service. This workshop will be of value to all involved in
European research and for those keen to play a role in its future development. It will be of
particular interest to those involved in the development of individual repositories, those co-
ordinating national repository networks and those interested in the implications of a European
repository network for European research. The workshop will provide a unique opportunity to
learn about the DRIVER project, to meet DRIVER representatives, share best practice and
discuss the current trends in the development and future of institutional repository networks.},
