Hi Margaret In the user interface you can delete communities. So if your 500 collections are all in the same community AND there is nothing else you could just delete the community and recreate it
If there are only a few ‘real’ collection in the community you could + create a new community + move the few collections to there + delete the original community + rename the new community with the name of the original one You’ll end up with a new handle for the community - but all other handles stay the same Moving collections is not supported in the UI I believe - but it is fairly easy to do in the database If that is a possible approach and I can help figure out the SQL for moving Monika ________________ Monika Mevenkamp mo.me...@gmail.com http://mo-meven.tumblr.com/ http://mcmprogramming.com/mo.meven/ > On Jan 3, 2018, at 9:05 AM, marga...@dal.ca wrote: > > approximately -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DSpace Technical Support" group.
