>                 Key: DS-645
>                 URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-645
>             Project: DSpace
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: JSPUI, XMLUI
>    Affects Versions: 1.6.2
>            Reporter: Jim Ottaviani
>            Priority: Major
>
> Two features to improve the current embargo functionality:
> * Full embargo capability
> Under a full embargo, an item is submitted and assigned a persistent 
> URL/handle, but no information (metadata or bitstream) is visible or 
> searchable until the embargo has lifted. This is, in effect, a temporary 
> withdrawal, with an expiration date after which the item becomes reinstated.
> Note that this is how authors and publishers affected by the many and various 
> mandated open access policies (NIH, Wellcome, etc.) define embargo, since 
> e.g. the NIH does not make anything visible in PubMed Central until the 
> embargo is lifted.
> * Current functionality: partial embargo warning text
> As currently configured, an embargoed item, its metadata, and the "View/Open" 
> link for its bitstream are all visible, with no indication that the bitstream 
> is not accessible. An automatic note should be placed in e.g. the bitstream 
> description field indicating that the bitstream can not in fact be viewed or 
> opened by most users.
> The current implementation provides a bad user experience -- in effect, a 
> bait-and-switch: Everyone sees the "View/Open" link, but that link doesn't 
> open the file; it instead triggers a login prompt. But after doing so, users 
> find they still can't access the bitstream unless they're a site 
> administrator. The administrator can of course add "Access to file restricted 
> until DD-MMM-YYYY" or something similar to the item retroactively, but having 
> the system prompt for this, or do it automatically, is appropriate.
