      *Call for DPLA Beta Sprint Submissions*

*Press release:*

The Digital Public Library of America 
<http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/research/dpla> (DPLA) Steering Committee 
seeks innovations from individuals, libraries, organizations, and others 
that could play a part in the building of a digital public library. 
Steering Committee Chair John Palfrey presents the DPLA Beta Sprint in

The Beta Sprint seeks, ideas, models, prototypes, technical tools, user 
interfaces, etc.---put forth as a written statement, a visual display, 
code, or a combination of forms---that demonstrate how the DPLA might 
index and provide access to a wide range of broadly distributed content. 
The Beta Sprint also encourages development of betas that suggest 
alternative designs or that focus on particular parts of the system, 
rather than on the DPLA as a whole.

While submissions should be consonant with the description of the DPLA 
that is set forth in the four-page Concept Note 
<http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/dpla/Concept_Note> posted on the DPLA 
wiki, the notion is not that we expect anything to be "done," but rather 
that submissions be expressive of a direction in which we might take the 
DPLA.
