[Dspace-tech] Batch delete e-people and e-groups
Good day DSpace Colleagues We would like to remove ''old'' data from our e-people and e-groups in DSpace. We use a DSpace instance as a temporary space where theses/dissertations are submitted (only students nominated to graduate can submit here): http://etd.sun.ac.za Since we are now preparing for the December 2014 graduation period, we would like to get rid of all data in a batch, not having to delete individual records one by one. http://etd.sun.ac.za/admin/groups http://etd.sun.ac.za/admin/epeople Is it possible to do this deletion in a batch, and if so, can somebody please indicate how?

Re: [Dspace-tech] Diacritics and DSpace 4.0 and 3.1
We've experienced the same problem (although UTF8/Unicode was activated within DSpace), and decided to do away with diacritics completely (in titles and surnames). End-users so far have not complained. I suspect they seldom use diacritics when entering search terms. It would be interesting to know how Google addresses this issue.

[Dspace-tech] Retrieving statistics from DSpace
Dear all We would very much like to demonstrate the impact of our repository, and would like to query the database for the following information (our repository is at http://scholar.sun.ac.za) - specifically the downloads per item according to: dc.type - Thesis dc.title dc.date.issued - for the years 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005 Pdf download statistics The above needs to be exported to a spreadsheet in the end.

[Dspace-tech] Item templates in DSpace 1.8.2
Hi there Is it possible to create an item template in DSpace 1.8.2 and apply it to all collections under a specific community?

Re: [Dspace-tech] How to let end-users submit to DSpace but hold the record and its attachment till it is fully checked by library staff
Dear Sherman When creating a collection, you have to create an electronic workflow for each collection. 1. Give the Submitters submission rights. They have to register first so that you can see them as an e-person when assigning rights. 2. Setup the workflow as follows: Submit (Library staff and other end-users) Workflow Step 2: Accept/Reject/Edit Metadata (Reviewer) Workflow Step 3: Edit Metadata (Cataloguers) 3. Assign specific persons to each of the above. 4. Once the metadata editor/cataloguer has had a look at the record, they can approve it and commit to archive. Only then it will be visible to the rest of the world.

[Dspace-tech] Call for Papers: ETD2011
*Apologies for cross-postings* ETD2011: Call for Papers, Presentations, Posters, Panels and Workshops ETD2011 - 14th International Symposium on Electronic Theses and Dissertations 13-17 September 2011 Cape Town, South Africa http://dl.cs.uct.ac.za/conferences/etd2011 ==Overview== ETD2011 is the latest in a series of international conferences of the Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (NDLTD). The expected audience will include advocates, practitioners, researchers and students working in the area of electronic theses and dissertations and, more broadly, open access and digital repositories. The conference is hosted in South Africa by the SA National Research Foundation, University of Cape Town and Stellenbosch University. ETD2011 will provide local and international attendees with the opportunity to exchange ideas and enrich their respective programmes, bridging the infamous north-south divide. The theme of ETD2011 is: From Islands to Global Interconnectedness, in the spirit of the African philosophical notion that we are who we are because of others. Open Access repositories, and ETD programmes in particular, have reached a stage of widespread acceptance around the world. Many attendees will come from institutions where ETD programmes already exist or are imminent. It is therefore appropriate that we now look to the development of relationships among institutions to, firstly, support one another at the level of policy and advocacy, secondly, provide users with services that span institutional and regional boundaries and, lastly, address global problems such as preservation by means of collaboration. The conference programme will include technical paper sessions, plenary keynote addresses, poster presentations, panels, tutorials and workshops -- to cater for a broad audience of participants. We invite you to submit a paper, poster or panel or workshop proposal for ETD2011. ==Topics== Submissions are encouraged in, but not restricted to, the following areas: - dataset curation - digital libraries - digital/institutional repositories - digitization - graduate education - intellectual property, copyright and publishing - interoperability and union collections - metadata standards - multimedia ETDs - non-traditional theses, such as creative works - national/regional collaborations - policies for ETD programmes - preservation - privacy - production of ETDs - statistics and reporting - workflows and processes ==Submissions== For papers, posters and workshop and panel proposals, submit an abstract of up to 500 words in a PDF or plain text document. Clearly indicate the authors, title and format (paper/poster/panel/workshop). For papers and posters, ensure that you outline the aims/objectives, methods, results and conclusions in your abstract. For workshops and panels, indicate the aims/objectives, programme and intended audience. All papers will be presented in the main sessions of the conference. All authors of accepted paper abstracts will be invited to submit full papers for peer-review prior to publication. This is optional. If a paper passes the peer-review, it may be published as a peer-reviewed paper; if a paper does not pass the peer-review, it may be published as a regular paper. Authors who choose not to submit their papers for peer-review may have their papers published as regular papers in the proceedings. The template and guidelines for papers is located at: http://dl.cs.uct.ac.za/conferences/etd2011/cfp/paper_template Accepted posters will be viewable in dedicated poster sessions and will be on display throughout the conference. Posters will also be archived electronically. Workshops will be held after the main conference to explore specialised topics in detail and may be focused on any aspect of significant interest to the community. Proposers of successful workshops will be responsible for the content of those workshops. Panels will be interspersed with the paper sessions. Proposers of successful panels will be responsible for the content/speakers of those panels. All submissions must be made through the Easychair online submission system. Use the following URL and log in or create an account in order to submit your abstract. http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=etd2011 ==Deadlines== Submission of abstracts: 28 February 2011 Notification of abstract acceptance: 15 April 2011 Submission of full papers (for Peer Review): 31 May 2011 Notification of peer review outcome: 14 July 2011 Submission of full papers (Regular Papers): 31 July 2011 ==Organising Committee== * Janine Dunlop, University of Cape Town * Pascal Hoba, Association of African Universities * Thuli Khoza, NRF * Patricia Liebetrau, University of Kwazulu-Natal * Pateka Matshaya, University of the Western Cape/CHELSA * Elsabe Olivier, University of Pretoria *
[Dspace-tech] Create index error
Dear all We experience major difficulties re-indexing our content on DSpace 1.6.2 (http://scholar.sun.ac.za). When using the Basic Search and Advanced Search, nothing is retrieved. Any advise out there? We get the following after deleting indexes and then trying to create them again. The script we run is attached. This used to work. We recently upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 and DSpace 1.6.2, but this script ran successfully after the upgrades. The problem has only occurred during the last week or so.

[Dspace-tech] Digital Preservation Policies
Good day We are in the process of conducting a content analysis of existing digital preservation policies by other institutions in order to also start working towards a digital preservation policy for the University of Stellenbosch, South Africa. Would highly appreciate it if there are some folks out there who would be willing to share - case studies are also welcome. Maybe there is a comprehensive list out there listing all the policies already? If you know of any, I would really appreciate it if you can forward it ... Many thanks in advance!

[Dspace-tech] Export/ Importa function in DSpace
Dear all I have a question re the Export function in DSpace. Export and Export (Migrate) does exactly the same, and there is no Import function which makes it very difficult to manage DSpace from a non-technical DSpace Administrator's side. Are you perhaps looking into it, or do I have it wrong? It would be very nice to import and export items around while being logged in as an Administrator, without having an IT expert to use the command line packager tool. Looking forward and would appreciate any assistance.
