Draft Strategic Vision for U.S Repositories Open for Community ConsultationCOAR and SPARC are seeking comment from the repository community on a draft strategic vision for U.S. repositories. The strategic vision is intended to be aspirational yet achievable over time through active community collaboration within the U.S. Repository Network. This Network is envisioned as inclusive of all U.S. repositories rather than as a membership-based organization. The process for reaching this draft vision is outlined in the U.S Repository Network Initiative Progress Report. This public comment phase is the final step before finalizing the strategic vision. Go to https://comments.coar-repositories.org/ to contribute your comments by May 13, 2022. Two live consultation sessions will also be offered on May 4 at 2pm Eastern and May 6 at 10am Eastern (click linked dates to register).
