Assuming that you want this behaviour for any new items added to collections within this community, then you will need to: 1) Edit the collection(s) 2) Edit the collection authorizations 3) Remove the DEFAULT_BITSTREAM_READ / Anonymous policy 4) Add a DEFAULT_BITSTREAM_READ / HOUP-Read policy (You could go through the Admin / Authorization / Manage a collection's policies interface to the same effect). This will give any new items / bitstreams the correct policies, but won't affect any of the existing content. > But when I add ordinary e-people to this HOUP-Read group, they still > can't access abstracts or bitstreams in the Sub-Community when logged in. For existing bitstreams, the quickest resolution would be through Admin / Authorization / Advanced item wildcard policy admin tool. From there, choose the collection(s) that contain the items, change content type to bitstream, choose the 'Anonymous' group and the action READ, then 'clear policies' Then, once more choose the collection(s), content type 'bitstream', choose the 'HOUP-Read' group, and action 'READ', then 'Add policy'.
