Dear Community,

It is bittersweet as I announce my departure from DuraSpace. Over the last 
eight years it has been an honor and privilege to work closely with the DSpace, 
Fedora and most recently VIVO communities to advance the software and create a 
sustainable pathway for each project.  I have enjoyed working closely with the 
community to chart a pathway to collaboratively develop a research and 
scholarship ecosystem for managing and preserving all academic knowledge and 
works.  Projects such as DPN, SHARE and DPLA all have great potential for 
providing long term managed access to knowledge and scholarship.

Today we kick-off the search process to find the next CEO for DuraSpace.  You 
can find the job description on our website (http://duraspace.org/jobs).  The 
search committee will be screening applications as they are received.  We 
expect to fill the position by January 2015.  The position is based in the USA, 
however no relocation is required.  It is anticipated the new CEO will set up a 
local office at their current location. The search committee is primarily 
composed of a subset of members from the DuraSpace board, and will be reviewing 
applications as they are received.  You can submit a cover letter and 
application to [email protected].

Please feel free to contact me ([email protected]) or someone from 
DuraSpace if you have any questions.  

Best,

Michele Kimpton
Chief Executive Officer
DuraSpace organization
