I see I didn't explain that very well -- each of the four repositories that I'm looking after belongs to a different NZ university or polytechnic. The Library Consortium of New Zealand [1] is a consortium of several university libraries in New Zealand; the institutions whose repositories I'm looking after decided to band together and share some work in setting up and running their repositories. > For the group -- does anyone else have more than one DSpace instance > at their institution, and why? One of the four sites does have several repositories, for historic reasons. Two organisational sub-units had already set up local repositories (both on EPrints) when the university-wide DSpace one went live. Currently all three are running side by side but plans are underway to merge at least one of the EPrints repositories into the university-wide one. cheers, Andrea [1] http://www.lconz.ac.nz/ -- Andrea Schweer IRR Technical Specialist, ITS Information Systems The University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
