Hello, I have created admin groups for particular collections in DSpace 1.5 and would like the epersons in these admin groups to be able to allow other epersons to submit items to the respective collections, without letting them delete, etc. I would also like to be able to do that for communities (and recursively all of their subcommunities and collections). What is the best way to do that?
I created an admin group, e.g. COLLECTION_1_ADMIN from the "Assign roles" menu under "Edit collection," and the default description of this group says "Collection administrators decide who can submit items to the collection, withdraw items, edit item metadata (after submission), and add (map) existing items from other collections to this collection (subject to authorization for that collection)." However, I also made a COLLECTION_1_SUBMIT group, then logged in with one of the accounts associated with the COLLECTION_1_ADMIN group (not a system admin account) and could *not* edit the COLLECTION_1_SUBMIT group -- got the message this account had insufficient permissions. I can't find an explicit option to give such permissions to the COLLECTION_1_ADMIN group. Also, I am confused regarding the Administrative - Access Control - Authorizations menu and the relationship of these authorizations to the groups above. If I already have a COLLECTION_1_ADMIN group (supposed to be able to administer this collection by virtue of its existence), do I need to specifically give ADD, DELETE, etc. authorizations to this group from the Authorizations menu, or is this already taken care of elsewhere?
