Do something no one has imagined: the 2008 SPARC Digital Repositories meeting

John Wilbanks (director of Science Commons) opened the SPARC Digital Repositories meeting1 with a message that greatly resonated with those attending: do something no has imagined, and don't wait. Indeed, many of the 330 repository managers, librarians, publishers, vendors, and technology specialists from around the world who convened in Baltimore to share success stories and failures regarding digital repositories, have already done so and plan to continue the trajectory.
