Withdrawn item
It is the removal of an Item from the archive. However, a withdrawn item is still available to Administrative users (and may optionally be restored to the archive at a later date). A withdrawn item disappears from DSpace (except from Administrative screens) and the item appears to be deleted.

If the metadata of the item should be visible only to a specific group of users, it is possible to define an embargo policy also for the ITEM itself. A READ policy for a specific group will mean that only the users in that group will be able to access the item splash page. Note that currently only some UIs (JSPUI/XMLUI) are fully the DSpace REST API & UI is fully rights aware (see Discovery documentation for more information, especially the section on "Access Rights Awareness"). This means that in different UIs, some metadata of a restricted item could be exposed to unauthorized users. When you need to work with UIs not fully rights aware, a workaround can be to use the "Private Item" flag to make the item undiscoverable so that metadata will be not exposed to unauthorized users. Please note that this workaround has several major limitations:
, meaning that an embargoed item is hidden automatically until the embargo expires.
