:::: Please Excuse Cross Postings ::::

Registration is open for next year's Islandoracon! Islandoracon 2017 is taking place May 15 - 19 in Hamilton, ON, Canada. This will be the second time the Islandora community has come together for a full-week conference. Our first conference was August 2015, in Charlottetown, PEI.

This year's conference theme is 'Beyond the Island'. Since its creation at the University of Prince Edward Island in 2006, Islandora has spread around the world. It has grown to include diverse institutions, collections, and strategies for digital repository management that add to the richness of the Islandora community. The 2017 Islandoracon will celebrate these multifaceted visions of Islandora that are continually emerging, inspiring constant revision in the concept of a digital repository.

Come hear and participate in all things Islandora. This year there's going to be an awesome Hackfest! See our full schedule: http://islandora.ca/camps/conference2017/schedule
