| Improve the ORCID login flow solving the issue related to private email address in the ORCID profile and/or discrepancy among the ORCID's email and the one in the existing DSpace EPerson | This project has been funded by ORCID under their GPF program.

| Allow multiple Affiliations per person on publication level | In DSpace-CRIS it's possible to set an affiliation for authors or other persons on publication level. But in the current implementation it's only possible to set just one affiliation per author. As far as I know, this is the same as on DSpace-CRIS 7. Does anybody use setting affiliations for persons on publication level and how do you handle that? Hi Oliver, we are handeling it with further child-fields. Currently we are supporting one further affiliation - in future we want to add 3 more. If anybody has a better idea, we are interested. Best Dirk. Fraunhofer IRB (Dirk Eisengräber-Pabst) ----- Hi Oliver, in our settings one person has one affiliation (delivered via LDAP) and can set additional affilations by choice. E.g. https://fis.uni-bamberg.de/cris/rp/rp14224. So you enter the author's name in the submission and receive a preview of the entered affiliations, from which you can select one. That fits our needs. |

| Importing items as private with bulk import | On DSpace-CRIS 7 2022.03.01 it's possible to set items as discoverable or not discoverable in the bulk import excel file. But it's not possible to create items, which are really private (no READ permission to Anonymous). For us, this is pretty bad as we are using the bulk import to import persons from our LDAP and need to restrict access to some of them. Does anybody else have the same problem? |
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Script Merging Entities | Our use case is: by now we regulary merge Persons (rps), which are created by mistake during the submission or by our ldap. In Dspace-Cris 5.X this could only done by our developers. In DS-CRIS 7 we would like to have a similar function operable via process to enable more colleagues to do this work. We would like to merge two entities, so that only one entity remains. The remaining one should contain all relationships and metadatafields from the deleted entity without losing its own metadatafields. It has been confirmed to us that this feature is part of the Data Quality Module, which 4Sience is currently working on. We will therefore participate in the financing of this module (to become Open Source). Help is welcome. 05/2024 : We have received the source code |

| See all languages for specific metadata fields (instead of only the values in the language, which is currently chosen on the UI) | If metadata fields with different languages are set (for instance a title in german and a title in english), the german title will only be displayed, when German is chosen as the language of the User interface. For some use cases this is a very nice feature. But for some metadata fields this could be unwanted (for instance if you have subject headings in different languages, you may want to see all of them at once, independently from the actually chosen language). |
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Set user for command line operations | On command line it is not possible to set a user, who should execute the operation on DSpace end. That is a problem, because it's impossible to create new entities via bulk import on command line as the user needs to be allowed to create new entities to the collection the import is targeting. |

| https://github.com/4Science/DSpace/issues/419 Bitstreams listed in the advancedattachment CRIS Layout option are not sorted correctly | Bug on the itempages (at least with the advancedattachment rendering in DSpace-CRIS): the files are sorted randomly and the sort order from bundle2bitstream.bitstream_order is ignored. Anyone having trouble with that as well? |

| https://github.com/4Science/dspace-angular/issues/66 Version information not visible on DSpace-CRIS itempages | The version information with a reference to the latest version and a version history for versioned items is not displayed on DSpace-CRIS itempages (in fact, it is visible on the full item view page and on generic DSpace 7, but not on DSpace-CRIS) |

Organization Unit Tree https://github.com/4Science/DSpace/issues/386 https://github.com/4Science/DSpace/pull/383 | Implementation of some organization unit tree which shows the hierarchical structure of Orgunits together with some metrics for each tree node. The tree is included as some extra section component. For each tree node metrics are calculated using solr queries or they are aggregated from subordinate nodes. The tree node is delivered through some new Rest endpoint. Some working example can be shown on https://fis.uni-bamberg.de/explore/orgunits |

| "Associate" Item https://github.com/4Science/DSpace/issues/365 https://github.com/4Science/DSpace/pull/382 | Extension of the edit-item mode which allows some user to "associate" some project to some publication (e.g. Publication dc.relation.project holding the reference to the project), although the permissions for editing the publication are missing. We use the terminus associate because connect, related, interlinking etc... and other synonyms are all already used in DSpace speech. |

| Versioning by metadata https://github.com/uniba-ub/DSpace/tree/uniba-versioning | Part of the versioning logic used by university of Bamberg, as previously presented at https://doi.org/10.20378/irb-53684 (german only) for DSpace5 by metadata. Add some context-menu button and endpoints to create some version/copy of some item as own workspaceitem. The reference between versions (isversionof/hasversions 1 to n) is hold in reciprocal metadata. Another functionality is to change the main version (which hasversions and in our case is discoverable) within some version group by another button in the context-menu |

| Enhancement Tools https://github.com/4Science/DSpace/issues/357 https://github.com/4Science/DSpace/pull/440 https://github.com/4Science/DSpace/pull/441 | The item-enhancer is usually some long-running process which runs over all items. We made some forks of the item-enhancer script: 1. only consider certain entity type or collection 2. only consider items of some solr-query, e.g. only recently changed. Both approaches limit the amount of items being processed and allow some fine-granular (re)calculation of virtual metadata. In addition there has been some improvements to the Commitment of the Context. The tools also contains some NameEnhancer which can be used to calculate the dc.title from several other metadatafield in their order of appearance. |

- Automatic detection of Identifier type
We are dealing with several Identifier types within DSpace (CRIS), mostly kinds of Persistent Identifiers like DOI, Handle, URN, as well as ISBN, ISSN, URL or similar things. In many contexts it is necessary to know about the identifier type (for instance for lookup or for submission to DataCite or other services). Handling of identifiers is different: sometimes it's qualified as a qualifier in the metadata field (for example dc.identifier.doi or dc.publisher.doi), but this is not good extensible and requires some effort. So it would be nice to have a concept how to deal with these identifiers. A useful extension for that would be the automatic detection of the identifier type. Zenodo has such a mechanism by guessing and suggesting the identifier type. We would like to have such a mechanism for DSpace as well, in any cases, where different identifiers might be used. Zenodo is using a Python toolkit for that (https://idutils.readthedocs.io), that might be useful to implement such a function.
This is not necessarily a CRIS feature only.
Interested: Hamburg University of Technology (Oliver Goldschmidt )
lobid integration
An integration of lobid (http://lobid.org/) would integrate the German Common Authority Record Database (GND) and other lobid services (like lobid-organisations) into DSpace. This could be useful in various contexts:
Lookup for subject headings (GND)
Lookup of person names (GND)
Lookup of organisation units (GND and lobid-organisations)
We would like to have that integration for the various lookup use cases as one more simplification to get content into the entities.
Interested: Hamburg University of Technology (Oliver Goldschmidt ), State and University Library Hamburg (Phu Tu )
The Library Code (Kim Shepherd and Pascal-Nicolas Becker ) are starting to implement this and will provide it back to DSpace-CRIS once it is done.
- Better import of BibTex and RIS files and DOI imports
The import of BibTex or RIS files and the DOI-Import in DSpace (-CRIS) using the gr.ekt code should be upgraded: the current import does not take into account differences between document types.
For example, RIS input fields can map to different Dublin Core fields depending on document type.
Interested in: University of Bamberg (Steffen Illig

Helmut-Schmidt-University Hamburg - Highlight changes in the Submission Workflow for new version (ongoing)
Helmut-Schmidt-University Hamburg - Vertical and horizontal tabs in CRIS Entities (done)
It will be an alternative layout for the CRIS object page highly configurable. Instead to use tabs a left menu will be introduced, with the possibility to group different sections (i.e. tabs) under a common label to build a hierarchical menu. Tabs not listed for the vertical menu will appear on the top of the CRIS content as horizontal buttons. The feature is NOT planned to be merged in the official code base but will be available on the HSU github public repository for other interested party. The source code is available here https://github.com/ub-hsu/DSpace/tree/openhsu-work

https://openhsu.ub.hsu-hh.de/cris/explore/orgunits
Helmut-Schmidt-University Hamburg - "Add fulltext / Create new version" and "green open access publication"-feature (various entry points) (ongoing)
"Add fulltext" enables e.g. authorized logged in users to jump directly in the submission workflow again to add the fulltext for dspaceitems, which has been published first as "only metadata"-submission. Enhancements are in progress.
Helmut-Schmidt-University Hamburg - Visual clustering and distinction of researcher profiles by status (e.g. in the "people"-section of orgunit-profiles or in facets) (done)
Helmut-Schmidt-University Hamburg - Visual distinction of organization units by type (done)
Helmut-Schmidt-University Hamburg - Duplicate Check for imports (done)
DSpace's duplicate check is triggered on the first page of the submission form. For manually added records this is early enough, but for records taken from a database import operation, this is a bit too late. So it would be a nice feature to see a duplicate warning already on the search result page after looking for new records in databases.
Hamburg University of Technology (Oliver Goldschmidt ), University of Bamberg ( Steffen Illig ) - Update ORCID integration to use ORCID API v3 (done)
DSpace CRIS should be able to use ORCID API v3
Hamburg University of Technology (Oliver Goldschmidt ) - Improve ORCID Lookup (ongoing)
The person lookup in DSpace CRIS can contain a lookup operation in ORCID. This operation is pretty slow and can delay the lookup process significantly. The ORCID lookup can be parallelized to improve performance. So it could be a good idea to split the lookup into two steps: first only the local database is searched. A button should be added to the lookup window to allow the user to lookup in ORCID as the second step. As ORCID Lookup is only allowed if the ORCID is definitely known, this would allow ORCID Lookup on demand and would improve lookup performance at once.
