Mark Diggory commented on DS-1162:
----------------------------------
A community is not really meant to be a group of people, it's a group of
subcommunities and collections. I'd advise that the grouping of
journals/issues/articles is one approach that is tractable at this time.
However another more effective approach is to utilize discovery facets and
expose journal and issue as facets, then if these are set in the item metadata,
they can be filtered on in the search ui allowing users to view the set of
articles based on thier own choices, these can also be exposed on the
collection home page navigation menu.
Storing issue and journal information in the item metadata also gives the
benefit that it is exposed via OAI in a manner that the detail is always
carried on the item metatdata records.

> There is no choice to create sub-collections under a collection. I'd like to
> see that sub-collections are available under a collection, just like
> sub-communities under a community. The availability of sub-collections will
> accommodate better the structure of serial publications such as a journal. If
> so, we can use a collection for the journal title, a sub-collection for a
> volume, and a further-down sub-collection for an issue, and each article in
> an issue as an item. Without this capability to add sub-collections, some
> people are using a community or sub-community instead. But logically, a
> community should be a group of people, not a collection of items.
