Steph Taylor at UKOLN (based at the University of Bath, UK) presented the
poster, I'm sure she'd be happy to discuss further.
We have also recently added on-the-fly coversheet generation to a list of
enhancement requirements for our repository; and so I was chatting to Steph
about it at the conference. I am not technical enough to know whether
generating them on-the-fly would be enough to resolve the problem entirely, but
agree it's worth investigating further.

Subject: Re: [Dspace-general] OR13 poster on why cover sheets might be bad for
you?
I am actually working on setting up cover sheets in our repository now so
finding out about this discussion now is great.
I am just wondering if in the DSpace context creating cover sheets on the fly
rather than as a curation task doesn't alleviate some of the problems with text
mining identified in this paper?
The other questions I have are:
Can anyone point to examples of setting up watermarking of PDFs in DSpace?
What about examples of adding to or altering the metadata of the PDF file
itself in DSpace?
Thanks for any ideas, Daryl
