Naveed,
We've never compiled good documentation on this, but I'd be happy to
place
something out there after I get back from OR09.
Would this be something folks would want to have on the DSpace Wiki
somewhere?
A few things that come to mind:
1. We used the technique of two instances of DSpace on one server,
one tomcat running.
2. It was version 1.4.2, and the build.xml had to be edited for this
second instance. In fact
we have two different [dspace-source] directories.
3. Since this server is behind our firewall, our students can gain
access via our proxy server. We
linked bibliographic records from our III ILS system via URLS to the
RSpace instance, and vice
versa. The ILS has the URL for the proxy server (or as we say, to
"connect from off campus, click
here").
That's a very brief synopsis, but I'd be happy to compile some
documentation.

Hi Jeff
Sounds good! unfortunately can't make OR2009 due to budget cuts :(
I'd really appreciate any info on what customisations were made to
go from
"D" to "Rspace". Do you intend to release RSpace to the community?
Can
your students access the reserves from your VLE, i.e. WebCT?
Thanks,
Naveed

Yes, we are doing that. We have a separate server set up, and
we call is "RSpace". Currently it is housing our reserves for the
music
faculty (sound recordings) and some documents for Chemistry.
Come to OR2009 and I'll be talking about RSpace....and the possible
repurposing of DSpace software for uses such as this.

Hi
Is there anyone using DSpace as an e-reserve repository?
Thanks,
