Item withdrawal/tombstoning
---------------------------
Key: DS-429
URL: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-429
Project: DSpace 1.x
Issue Type: New Feature
Affects Versions: 1.6.0
Reporter: Jim Ottaviani
Priority: Minor
The current implementation of tombstoning does not appear to show any item
information in the tombstone. To extend the metaphor, it would be good to
provide something along the lines of "Here lies item [title of item]", rather
than a blank/generic tombstone -- or at least have the option to do so.
We implemented a local customization that does two things. First, it continues
to display metadata for the item, while preventing access to the downloadable
bitstreams. This alerts the requestor that they have indeed arrived at the
right place. Second, it allows the administrator to choose from a menu of
withdrawal messages -- stored in dc.description.withdrawalreason so it's
customizable after the fact -- that displays in the "Files in This Item" block.
Here are some examples in our system:
http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/handle/2027.42/58331
http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/handle/2027.42/51548
http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/handle/2027.42/57993
Our standard phrases are "Removed from view by legal order." (haven't had to
use that one yet!), "Removed from view by the University of Michigan," and
"Removed from view at request of the author."
