Just like any other system, there is tweaking that needs to be done on the back end, but it does allow our students to designate how publicly accessible they want their files to be. The software itself is freely available: http://www.eprints.org/ We haven't made our instance very pretty, but it is very functional. We've been using it since 2001 over several versions. If you want to see the thesis collection: http://thesis.library.caltech.edu/ .

The caveat being that when the author submits the paper, they would be able provide permissions and metadata to the document (copyright and access) and, based on those permissions, the entire document would be made public or only the metadata. I know that there are large repository software packages like DSpace or Fedora Commons that probably do this, but I was looking for something smaller. I don't need to scale to millions of documents and have all of the potential bells and whistles. Just something that lets people create an account, upload, set permissions and the have documents show up in the search interface. Anything like this around?
