Hi All,

I have a couple questions about how DSpace handles digital books. First of
all, as a typical book contains 200-400 pages, should each page be added as
a bitstream? If so, is there a tool in DSpace that allows users to "turn the
page" rather than go back to the item and click the next page? If all pages
should be compiled into one bitstream, the file size for a searchable PDF/A
will be pretty large, even after compression, and the Content Inline
Disposition Threshold in DSpace is set at 8mb, what negative outcome will it
result if we reset that Content Inline Disposition Threshold to 0 or
unlimited?

Alternatively, should we break the book down by chapter and upload each
chapter as a bitstream? If so, is there an easy way for the user to go to
the next chapter?

Thanks for your advice,

Shixing
