Hi Stewart,
Thank you for pointing out these options for bitstreams in dspace import, as
well as the zip option.
Peter,
Thanks for looking into this as well.
I'm currently using your csv->SAFBuilder. I don't think it supports
multiple bitstreams in a single item. If I can figure out a way for it to
do so, I'll add to SAFPackage to allow descriptions, permissions, and
primary bitstream identification.
I'm looking at creating folio items--much like the ones at the Texas A&M
Repository
http://repository.tamu.edu/handle/1969.1/2961
We get rolls of film that come from archaeological digs, and for most of
them, it's better to consider a roll as an item if possible.
If I come up with tools to help with this sort of thing, I'll be sure to
share it.
Thanks Again,
Joseph
