The Open Repositories Steering Committee in conjunction with Universität Hamburg is very pleased to announce that the 14th Open Repositories Conference will be held in Hamburg, Germany from 10-13 June 2019 at Universität Hamburg.
Universität Hamburg is the largest research and educational institution in northern Germany. As one of the country’s largest universities, it offers a diverse range of taught programs coupled with excellent research. The institution is committed to sustainable science and scholarship and its faculties pursue the concept of sustainability in its broadest sense in both research and teaching.
The annual Open Repositories Conference is a practitioner based conference that brings together people from higher education, government, libraries, archives and museums to focus on repository infrastructure, tools, services, and policies. The Conference provides a forum for delegates from around the world to explore the challenges and opportunities that arise at the interface of technology and scholarly publishing and practice.

I am a academic librarian and want to participate in this conference. I also have the intention to present a Poster Paper for the conference.
Traveling to Europe require a good amount amount of money. I do not have the financial strength to cover all the costs, that’s why I am seeking some financial assistance.
Dear Noor,
as with previous conferences, OR2019 will probably again run a scholarship programme that you could apply to. Watch this space for further information, probably when the call for papers opens.
Will the OR2019 really start on June 10th 2019? This is a public holiday in Germany.
Yes, it will. The main conference track will start on Tuesday, though. “Whitmonday” will be the usual workshop day.
