Hi all,

I'm just back from a few days' leave but felt that I should clarify, since this is a public list. I'm sorry if my presentation at OR2015 came across as "avoid at all cost". That's certainly not how I would summarise my feelings about integrating Symplectic Elements and DSpace. There are a few shortcomings, but the root issue is just as much with DSpace (lack of workflow for reviewing updates to existing items) as with Elements.

I've responded to Amanda in more detail on a different list, but just for posterity -- the specific thing she was asking about (which DSpace bundles to expose to Elements) is configurable via a dspace.cfg option related to Symplectic's Repository Tools for DSpace add-on.

cheers,
Andrea

this sounds tricky

I remember that Andrea Schweer gave a poster presentation at OR 2015 about a Symplectic pitiful regarding changing items after they were pushed from Symplectic to a DSpace instance. She implemented some custom stuff - but essentially I remember the advise being: avoid at all cost.

We are about to start with Symplectic here at Princeton; but since we haven’t started yet I have no detailed advise

Hi Amanda,

Do you (or anyone else) know how Symplectic Elements is pulling content from DSpace?

In general, this sounds like it *might* be more of an issue with how Symplectic Elements is pulling in DSpace content, and you may wish to talk to them about the possibility of pulling in non-ORIGINAL bundles from your non-public DSpace. It's possible it may something they can configure on their end.

[apologies for cross-posting]

hi all,

I'm looking for technical advice from folks savvy with Dspace 5 and Symplectic Elements.

We have academics deposit two categories of documents into Symplectic Elements. (1) Full text content of the research output (be that published or accepted version etc) and (2) 'Evidence' which may be for example,  the conference programme they presented at, or an email asking them to be a keynote, or even permission from the publisher that the output can be made Open Access.

Our Research Office want to be able to store this Evidence file electronically in the non-public DSpace instance (connected to Symplectic), but we don't want it harvested into the public Dspace instance (MRO).
We set up a curation task to move any bitstreams categorised with the tag 'Evidence' into another bundle within the non-public Dspace. This works perfectly in that the files in this bundle do not get harvested.

However it means that the files are no longer visible/viewable in the Symplectic Elements record, which is crucial to the Research Office staff.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how non-ORIGINAL bundles in Dspace might still be viewable in Symplectic?

I hope that makes sense.
Am running Dspace 5.4 on both instances, Symplectic Elements
4.12.0.579  and RT4DS version 1.1

Amanda
