High Energy Physics has been the leading research domain when it comes to e-Science. It has however been less involved in the digital preservation agenda. This might change now, as computer weekly reports. They interviewed Physicist Rolf-Dieter Heuer, who becomes CERN director general in January.

Open access to research information is becoming more and more vital for today's global community. Research, government and enterprise can all benefit from reliable, open access, interoperable Digital Repository infrastructures. This seminar, the first of six OGF-Europe Community Outreach Seminars (COS), showcases how grid technologies are supporting the Digital Repositories (DR) agenda, highlighting how grid is pertinent in vertical and horizontal domains of Digital Repositories and emphasizing best practices and case studies through examples of user adoption.
This is the first development site of the newly established EPSRC e-Science Network on Digital Repositories in e-Science environments.
