------------------------------------------------------------
The librarians at at least one of the repositories I'm looking after are very
interested in this functionality. They would use it to allow viewers to make
requests that are currently handled via interloan; ie the requests would go to
the Interloans folks rather than directly to the author.
For the temporary viewing privs, my first thought would be to handle it
similarly to embargoes -- set an expiry date and then set up a nightly job that
goes through and revokes access once the expiry date has been reached. Of
course the question is where to store the expiry date in this case; I don't
have any ideas at this stage other than adding a column to the database
table(s) for authorisation policies.

> Request Copy function for XMLUI; would allow author of item to give viewing

> Key: DS-824
> URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-824
> Project: DSpace
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Documentation, Language Packs, XMLUI
> Reporter: Brian Freels-Stendel
> Priority: Trivial
>
> The University of Minho developed a patch that gives this functionality in
> JSPUI: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/RequestCopy .
> In implementing it for the XMLUI, I would like to alter the functionality so
> that the process looks something like:
> a. User clicks on restricted item link
> b. System responds with current behavior, adding a link/button to request
> privs to view item
> c. Clicking link to request privs to view item sends e-mail to author of
> item: includes Yes or No options
> d. Clicking yes sends e-mail to User with link to view item
> e. Clicking on link creates 'ghost' group with read access to item,
> including associated bitstreams. (Probably time-limited; one month?)
> This process would improve on the original process of sending the bitstreams
> to the User via e-mail; large documents often exceed outgoing mail limits, or
> incoming mailbox size restrictions. However, it also presents possible
> problems in trying to bypass the authorization system.
> I'm just starting to trace paths into the guts of XMLUI, so the general
> process is still in flux. I'd welcome any input, particularly regarding how
> to temporarily grant viewing privs to the restricted bitstreams.
