•    Value-added services
•    Repository promotion

Presenters will be limited to two or three minutes and one slide.

Fair projects will be featured on the Crowdvine for the conference at http://sparc08.crowdvine.com, where presenters will be asked to post their slide or graphic on the network in a blog post. For more details, see the Call for Proposals to the Fair at http://www.arl.org/sparc/media/08-0714.shtml.
