Hello James,
I saw your note at
http://www.loc.gov/standards/mets/mets-registry.htmlabout adding METS
support to DSpace. I am new to DSpace and to digital
libraries generally, so I could be wrong, but AFAIK DSpace does not support
METS yet. Am I right? If so then I wonder what the status of this w

It should be able to filter these files. The OCR (text) is kept in a different
'layer': http://www.dclab.com/pdfconversion3.asp.
Caveat is that there may be more ways to include OCR information that I don't
know about.

Question: If a .pdf document contains, let's say, 1 page in the
middle of a document that contains an image (a drawing for instance), is
filter-media going to fail on the filtering of this document or will it
just skip the image and continue to filter what it can?

The DSpace platform now has over 500 instances in 60 different
countries worldwide! DSpace continues to be the most popular
repository solution, with over a third of the known institutional
repositories using the DSpace software. Each month there are between
10-15 new instances of DSpace. C

Andrew:
Performing OCR on a PDF document is, as far as I know, the most widely
used method to search a PDF document. Is there a specific reason you
do not want the PDFs to be searchable? Even the archival "standard" of
PDF/A (archival PDF) allows for OCR.

Gank away. There may be other useful tidbits in that file as well,
though a lot of it is... idiosyncratic. If I n
Andrew,
It sounds like you have different templates. You will need to add the
dc.subject to the template your collection is using in
config/input-forms.xml.

I just tried adding a book to my DSpace collection for the first time today.
After adding it I went to edit the metadata and was suprised to see that
unlike journal articles, book metadata does not have dc.subject! How do I
specify subject(s) for a book please?

What could be done is:
1) user in DSPace is assigned to pseudonym as identifier (e.g. using netid)
2) user has his email address being "updated" from shibboleth (hence if he
changes email, it will be reflected right away)
I think this will satisfy your requirements (whereby there is a chance for
Yup, that's where targetedID could go for as well. The only implication is that
if the items need to be imported/exported to other repositories (SP), you may
need to do some transformation for it (if you've chosen ePTID). Using principal
name attribute could be another alternative.

Hi.
I can only speak for v1.4.2, but I don't think it is much different for
1.5.x: as email is a column of of eperson table (which also gets a
eperson_id column), why couldn't you change the email value, instead of
using a pseudonym.
This would be better if the user could change the email himself.
Hello,
Now that I have loaded a few PDFs into my DSpace repo, I am wondering how to
enable full text searching. The PDFs happen to be in a form that means they
cannot be searched directly. So when I search in DSpace I get no results
returned (unless the text also appears in the abstract I entered
Hi Jochen,
that's exactly what it is for.
Actually LDAP auth using it. Any custom authentication should use it
instead of email if the external "username" is not an email address.
Please note that netid need to be unique.

I once rewrite the update-handle-prefix script to work with oracle, instead
of postgresql (in version 1.4.2 of DSpace).
I mainly replaced

echo "update handle set handle=overlay(handle placing '$2' from 1 for
$oldPrefixLen) where handle like '$1%';" | psql

Hi,
I found the netid column in the eperson table.
Can this be used for a login too instead of the email address?
This could be the solution for the pseudonym login with Shibboleth.
