  1. Choosing an Open Source Digital Collection Software Solution: Eprints DSpace Drupal Omeka

  3. Objective Five stages of implementation: • Installation (DSpace) • Branding • Collection setup • Item ingest • User Interface

  4. LAMP • Linux • Apache • MySQL • PHP/Perl • Eprints • Omeka • Drupal

  5. Linux • Tomcat • PostgresSQL • Java • JSP/XSLT DSpace

  6. EPrints • DSpace • Drupal • Omeka

  7. EPrints • University of Southampton, UK • First released (v 2.0) 2002 • Current version 3.2.7 (v3 2006) • Linux / Windows (Perl) • “EPrints is … the easiest and fastest way to set up repositories of open access research literature, scientific data, theses, reports and multimedia.”

  8. EPrints : Key Features • software links to the SHERPA/RoMEO database so authors can easily verify their publisher policies • LCSH framework included that can be manually expanded • Supports internal and external authority files or auto-fill from previous database entries. • Multiple item import and export options • Thumbnails and preview images of search items

  9. EPrints: Branding

  10. Step 1: /usr/share/eprints3/archives/archivename/cfg/subjects Step 2: Step 3: $ bin/import_subjects archivenamefilename

  11. Step 1: /usr/share/eprints3/archives/archivename/cfg/subjects Step 2: Step 3: $ /bin/import_subjects <archive id> -xml

  12. Collection “Division” Setup

  13. EPrints: Item Ingest

  14. EPrints Conclusion • Easy to install, easy to brand, best for a single subject-specific repository • Designed for documents, though now supports multiple file types • Easy embargo, default thumbnail and preview • Some preservation support – History module for tracking changes, METS export plugin • V3 does enable easier development of plugins (20-30 listed per year)

  15. EPrints: Challenges • Not all Dublin Core fields provided (relation, source, contributor, coverage) • Lack of theme options • Possible with Views to create custom collection space within a repository? • Statistics? Permissions? Plugins? • Documentation not well developed

  16. EPrints • DSpace • Drupal • Omeka

  17. DSpace • HP-MIT Libraries Alliance (2002) • DuraSpace (2009) • Current version 1.7.1 (2.0 due in Oct.) • Linux / Windows (Java) • “DSpace preserves and enables easy and open access to all types of digital content including text, images, moving images, mpegs and data sets.”

  18. DSpace : Key Features • Preservation support: Bit integrity checker, format registry, item history, handles, DuraCloud backup • Discover faceted seach/browse interface • Qualified Dublin Core base or MODS thru xmlui • Embargo capability • OAI-PMH harvesting, both data and service supplier • Manakin XMLUI provides flexible though challenging customization capability (multiple custom archives)

  19. Dspace: Installation Prerequisite Software : • Linux or Windows • Oracle Java JDK   • Maven (Java build tool for stage 1) • Ant (Java build tool for stage 2) • PostgreSQL or Oracle • Tomcat • Perl

  20. JSPUI: Java Server Pages User Int.

  21. XMLUI : Manakin (default theme)

  22. /dspace/config/xmlui.xconf Stop / Start Tomcat

  23. Kubrick theme

  24. @Mire Mirage Theme http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui

  25. Changing home page XMLUI /dspace/config/news-xmlui.xml

  26. New Preservation Tool: 1.7

  27. OAI Harvesting
