[Dspace-tech] Creative commons in edit item tool
I'm searching also for the same feature! Where it is in the 1.8.2 or 3.0 Dspace version? I can't find it in JSPUI or inthe XMLUI. We recently upgraded to our Dspace 1.5.2 server to Dspace 1.8.2 and noticed that we no longer have the option to add the Creative Commons licence in the edit item tool. Is there still an option to either add the CC licence when submitters forget to add it, or to change the CC licence when the incorrect licence has been selected? -- Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Creative commons in edit item tool
Bram and I looked at how DSpace stores the information that an item is CC-licensed. It stores a license bitstream (license_rdf) in the CC-LICENSE bundle and it also adds the dc.rights and dc.rights.uri fields. Anyway, there's no direct support for adding a CC license in XMLUI or JSPUI that we know of AFTER the original submission. I also tried looking at how you can do it manually by editing bitstreams/metadata, but the fact that the bitstreams are stored in the CC-LICENSE bundle together with the fact that you can't add or remove bundles from the UIs means, that it can't be done at this moment. We're assuming the reason for why it's not possible is that even an admin shouldn't be allowed change the license after the item has been submitted, because it's the author's right (it seems DSpace assumes the submitter is the author) to choose the license. Of course, there are cases where this assumption doesn't hold (e.g. importing items by other means than the submission workflow). Here's a proposal that would solve this (among other issues) by letting you re-submit an existing item via the submission workflow again. It may be worthwhile to watch it. https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1234 What you can currently do is to use the item exporter to export the item, add the bundle and bitstreams and re-import (replace) it. It might be preferable from creating a new item, because it would keep the item's handle, metadata and bitstreams. Feel free to file this as a new Jira issue, that way you'll be able to watch its progress and any comments made.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Creative commons in edit item tool
Dear helix84, Thanks for your research and extensive reply. Strangely enough, it has been possible for the admin to add a CC to item for which the submisser had not supplied one. I have done that as admin in the edit item page. It is our department's policy that CC has to be applied to all documents. Occassionally authors forget this. As we never could see whether a CC was applied until after an item was approved, we have used the admin feature to add CC to submitted items. Now the workflow seems to indicate whether CC is applied to an item, and we can advise authors accordingly.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Creative commons in edit item tool
Hi folks: Just to add to this thread, I think the best approach is to directly edit these related CC fields (or add/remove bitstreams) as seldom as possible, since it is too easy to introduce inconsistencies among them (e.g. the name doesn't match the URI, or the bitstream, etc). To address this need in a 'safer' way, I just put up some curation task code: https://github.com/richardrodgers/ctask/blob/master/general/src/main/java/org/dspace/ctask/general/CCLicenseLookup.java that does the following: it uses the license URI as the 'key' and then fetches the values (license Name, and license RDF) from CC and assigns them to the item. That way one can be assured of having a consistent set of values (2 metadata fields and a bitstream). In fact, I think the submission UI can be configured to only set the URI, so that you don't need to redo anything but that field, and leave the rest to the task. It's untested as yet, but since we might be needing something like this for local MIT 1.8 upgrade work, I thought I'd share early… Thanks, Richard R.
