Presentations from the International DOI Foundation's Open meeting on the theme of "Innovative uses of the DOI System", held in Washington, DC in June 2007 are now available, together with materials from related meetings discussing the DOI System.

Following a keynote on "Content management in the next generation Internet", several panellists discussed specific areas of innovation. In a following Handle System Workshop, two presentations discussed interesting areas of new development: Chuck Koscher of CrossRef spoke on the application of multiple resolution at CrossRef; and Piero Attanasio of mEDRA described a pilot scheme for integrating ISBN with DOI to form a "Bookland DOI" (the linkage of DOI with other ISO identifiers such as ISBN in this way is explicitly recommended in the current draft ISO standard). The same themes were picked up in the next days NISO/BISG Forum on "The Changing Standards Landscape: Creative Solutions to Your Information Problems". Presentations of all these meetings are now available via the links below:
