As we look towards the possibilities for the DSpace platform beyond DSpace 7.0, we want to think about high-priority areas of integration and interoperability for DSpace (e.g. ORCID, Open Journal Systems). After a brief introduction, we will break up into 4-5 randomly assigned groups to discuss the question of DSpace integrations. You will have 15 minutes in your group to do the following:
You can take notes in a Google doc that matches your Breakout Room number, linked to here **** Round Robin (15 min): At the end of 15 minutes, we will reconvene and hear reports from each group. | Kristi Park, all | |||

Notes:
DSpace 7 Development Overview and Update
- walkthrough of DSpace 7 release page
- milestones going back to 2014
- main goal was single out of the box user interface
- difficult to maintain 2 UIs and have same features across both UIs
- Tim discussed the different sections on https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSPACE/DSpace+Release+7.0+Status
- entities is early step to make DSpace more competitive with platforms like Digital Commons (BePress)
- community voiced concerns to move more quickly in 2019 (also around the time of merger of DuraSpace and Lyrasis)
- preview release to show the progress
- then staged beta releases to push the release along more rapidly
- 4 beta releases done
- currently working on beta 5
- less about features, more around making it more stable and production ready
- one larger feature: theme and multiple themes on comm/coll level
- first upgrade to angular 10 then theme work (expected early Feb)
- then scheduling the community testahon
- dspace 7.0 doesn't contain all features
- after prioritization effort in steering certain features were pushed to 7.1 and 7.2
- in 7.2 there are some features that might move to 7.1 if needed
Q: release dates for 7.1/7.2
A: not clear, will depend on whether it's funded development or volunteer based. will depend on funding
Q: if there is paid development what would the estimate be
A: not possible to answer because of the estimation of the work of the features hasn't been done yet
Q: dspace 7.0 release date?
A: one month after the testathon
Q: COVID impact on the volunteer development
A: yes, volunteer effort did decline
DSpace Community Advisory Team Update
- DCAT working on user documentation
- this is less technical and supplements the technical documentation
- organized in sprints as it doesn't exist (even for previous versions)

- like help to join the effort or spreading the word
- will be announced in regular channels
- co-working sessions organized
Financial and Fundraising Update
fundraising update
- after paid development was decided, fundraising started
- goal was to raise $300,000
- raised +/- $151,000 (one time donations and increases in membership levels)
- good result given covid pandemic, fundraising dropped significantly
- discussion needed to decide whether to continue with paid development for 7.1/7.2
Financials update
- Laurie highlighted positive and negative variances compared to the budget that was made at the start of the year
- development costs: almost at $200,000 of the $300,000 (beta 5 invoices still need to come in), and then for testathon
- if depleted go into retained net assets, then partners offered delayed payment, and final solution would be to use credit line.

Breakout discussions
4 groups provided valuable input with regard to high-priority areas of integration and interoperability for DSpace, in summary (starting from those mentioned by more than one group):
PIDs: ORCID, DOI minting (CrossRef, DataCite), ROR, grants databases
Easy (automatic) deposit (importing data from different sources during submission): PubMed, Scopus, ArXiv, SCOAP3, https://shareyourpaper.org/, automatic deposit by publisher (Like Ingest, DeepGreen), full text deposit
Framework for easier integration of external services, e.g. digital preservation, CMS, Born digital archival records integration (e.g. ArchivesSpace), countrywide services (JISC’s Publications Router in UK), local systems (e.g. HR)
OpenAIRE: compliance for harvesting, integration for enrichment (e.g. OpenAIRE Graph)
Integrations with CRIS systems
Integrations for research data, e.g. http://www.scholix.org/
APC management, e.g. https://chronoshub.io/
Requirements for Plan-S compliance
Improve integrations at bitstream level, e.g. Creative Commons
Refresh SherpaRoMEO integration
Integration with OJS - Open Journal Systems
Reports for exporting to other systems (e.g. KBART?), institutional annual review systems
Integration with IIIF APIs for images and audio/video players
Thesis and dissertations management (Vireo, ProQuest)
Kristi: these suggestions will usefully inform the task of identifying and prioritizing future developments of DSpace.
Susanna: most of these inteegrations are already working in DSpace-CRIS and ported under the new Live Import Framework of DSpace 7, so 4Science is ready to make all code available to the community for the next DSpace evolution path.
