Hello George,the embargo only works during the submission process. It will restrict the access to the bitstreams belonging to an item, set a lift date and change the date available. When the embargo is lifted the resource policies are inherited from the owning collections default settings.
Here is a simple example using a date field and the default setter.Define 2 metadata fields in the metadata registry of your DSpace instance, e.g.:
foo.embargo.terms
foo.embargo.lift
(and if wanted hide these with the metadata hide feature)
Add them to the dspace.cfg as embargo fields:
embargo.field.terms = foo.embargo.terms
embargo.field.lift = foo.embargo.lift
Then you got to add the administrative.embargo.terms to the input-forms.xml:
<field>
<dc-schema>foo</dc-schema>
<dc-element>embargo</dc-element>
<dc-qualifier>terms</dc-qualifier>
<repeatable>false</repeatable>
<label>Date of embargo duration</label>
<input-type>date</input-type>
<hint>Some explanatory text</hint>
<required></required>
</field>
You can create your own setter and use terms like 6 months, 1 year etc
on which base the lift date will be computed.

Hi... I have a question about using the new Embargo feature. Previous to DSpace 1.6, I used an altered version of the code developed by Terry Owen (U of Maryland). Now I am trying to use the new Embargo feature. I created two fields: dc.embargo.terms and dc.embargo.liftdate and added them to an existing Thesis in my test system. I was not able to have the embargo applied. Is there any documentation that shows some concrete examples of setting these parameters and getting the embargo working? Also, when I try to run /dspace/bin/dspace embargo-lifter -c, I get the error: "Command not found: embargo-lifter". I did uncomment things in dspace.cfg for the embargo. Any ideas would be appreciated ;-) George Kozak Digital Library Specialist Division of Library Information Technologies (DLIT) 501 Olin Library Cornell University Ithaca, NY 14853 607-255-8924 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
