Hello all! Fresh DSpace user here, first posting to the list. Question:
The handle URI's point to bogus locations (ie:
http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/5 ). I understand that this is by design
and I've read the Handle Server section of the Advanced Install
instructions. Is there a way to get around the $100 on the handle prefix
through CNRI? --Is it possible to set the article submissions not to
include the handle.net URI? I can see that the handle URI can be edited
_after_ submission, but is there some way of disabling it automatically so
that the admin does not have to edit each and every article/paper/report
submission?
Although we're in the evaluating stages of DSpace, this will eventually be a
production-level University service offering. Is there any reason why it
would be beneficial to retain the handle server in such a case? I'm not
sure I understand the difference between the handle server and local item
pages. For example, the local item page for one article is
http://localhost:8080/dspace/handle/123456789/5 and the handle URI for this
same page is http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/5 What does the handle URI
provide that the local item page does not? I've been to handle.net and I've
read that handles "resolve into the information necessary to locate, access,
contact, authenticate, or otherwise make use of the resources". Doesn't the
localhost URL do just the same?
I appreciate any advice given. Thank you kindly!
