In preparation for the call, you could do the following:
- Share any questions you may have
- Think about local institution code implications
- Share how you are using DOIs currently (what systems/plugins you are using, what fields you are using, how you are displaying DOIs, differences for minting versus manually assigned, etc.)
Meeting notes
Maureen Walsh, moderator
Tim Donahue, presenter:
Discussion re: proposal in ticket DS-3708: Issues where DSpace sites store DOIs. Stored in different metadata fields depending on the service used: DC.IDENTIFIER or DC.IDENTIFIER.DOI. Proposal is to standardize where DOIs generated by DSpace are stored in dc.identifier.doi.
Question: Many DOIs are coming from outside DSpace, would this affect where those are stored?
Answer: Up to the institution
Question: Where are institutions putting DOIs generated from outside DSpace?
Answer: dc.identifier.doi, dc.identifier.uri
Question: Could we use a shoulder to indicate which are generated by DSpace?
Answer: Possibly, if we used a specific shoulder to indicate DSpace-generated DOIs.
Commentary:
- DSpace-generated only through Datacite
- Institution didn’t realize that dc.date.available field was used by OAI/PMH harvesting. Can it be made clear which required fields used by DSpace may be used for other purposes?
- One institution uses dc.identifier.doi, but manipulating the landing page so that the DOI shows instead of the handle. Also, anything that looks like a URL = a link.
- Bioethics library has over 300,000 records; DOIs are placed in dc.identifier.uri
- Simple item view may show both the DOI and URI/handle
- Ideal if item view was configurable on an item-by-item basis
- Suggestion that a report be offered that lists all the DOIs in the repository
- Some institutions use the handle as part of the DOI
- Would be nice if we could have categories for Dublin Core metadata fields.
- Some institutions create fields to fit new purposes.DSpace-generated only through DataciteSummary
Summary of discussion: Proposal is OK; More configurability in the user interface would be ideal
DSpace 7 update: Development is slower than expected because of small development team.
All the updates/notes are on the wiki page: DSpace 7 Working Group .
Atmire and 4Science are developing, some Texas A&M on Angular, IUPUI helping on some:
Live demo sites:
Demo DSpace 7 UI: https://dspace7-demo.atmire.com/
Demo DSpace 7 REST API: https://dspace7.4science.it/dspace-spring-rest/
Demo of basic browse and search functionality. Not heavily themed, because institutions will be using Bootstrap theming. Can browse REST API and practice custom requests.
Back side: Team that is working on enhancing the search functionality, providing more options for sorting/display of search results
Team working on submission process; demo may appear in January. Mock ups are available on DSpace 7 UI Mockups . Feedback requested. Administrative tools yet to come.
Want to have a working model demo (early preview release) by Open Repositories next year.
Question: Work being done on viewers?
We discussed integrated viewers and DSpace. Regarding IIIF viewers, assets in DSpace may different from the assets used by a viewer, perhaps as individual pages. This leads to a loose integration with DSpace..
