That's a tough one, but it's something I've been wondering about since programs
where I work seem to move around more often than one might imagine.
I think I would move the faculty publications so that the faculty are always
located in the college/department where they are currently located. The ETDs,
though, should stay with the department/college that granted the degree.
I'll be curious to know what you end up doing!

Subject: [Dspace-general] Colleges and Departments Changing Names
Hello.
What do you do when departments/colleges change names and disciplines don't map
nicely to one another in DSpace? We have a college (with 5 disciplines) and a
department (with 2 disciplines) from a different college merging into one
college with 5 completely different disciplines. Each of the old disciplines
have faculty publications as well as theses and dissertations. Now what do we
do with those items? Individually move them to the new discipline(s)? Leave the
items under the old name(s) and start fresh with the new college? I'd be
interested in any and all ideas.
Thanks,
--
