Hi Kiriaki,

Unfortunately, authority control is an area of DSpace that is still poorly
documented.  I've just logged a new ticket around that here:
https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-4005 (I'm hoping that someone on this
list might help us fix that and/or volunteer to share their own local
documentation!).  I admit, I don't even have a clear understanding of each
of the configuration options...but, here's the basic documentation we do
have:

High level overview docs:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/Authority+Control+of+Metadata+Values

(Limited) docs of some authority control configurations:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/Configuration+Reference#ConfigurationReference-AuthorityControlSettings


Additional docs on customizing submission pages (including using predefined
controlled vocabularies though, and not authority control):
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/Submission+User+Interface#SubmissionUserInterface-CustomMetadata-entryPagesforSubmission


To my knowledge (and someone should correct me if I'm wrong), I don't
believe we currently have an option to allow submitters to select keywords
based on searching terms already used in the repository. There is such a
feature for *authors* (the SolrAuthorAuthority plugin), but it's primarily
used by the ORCID integration described at:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/ORCID+Integration

I'm hoping someone else here has more information, and/or can help us
enhance this area of the documentation. It's an area we could really use
more community contribution/support.

- Tim
