Subject: [Dspace-tech] New and Improved DSpace Registry

Dear DSpace Community,

There is a new resource now available to the DSpace community -- the much 
improved DSpace user registry 
(http://www.dspace.org/whos-using-dspace/Repository-List.html). Please read the 
news item below for more information.

Have you ever wondered which institutions have upgraded to the most recent 
version of DSpace or which repositories have video files stored?
DuraSpace is pleased to announce a new resource, the  community DSpace 
Registry<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=i8p7uodab.0.0.5iy95gcab.0&ts=S0483&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dspace.org%2Fwhos-using-dspace%2FRepository-List.html&id=preview>
 (http://www.dspace.org/whos-using-dspace/Repository-List.html).
The database was conceived of and designed by members of the DSpace Global Outreach 
Committee<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=i8p7uodab.0.0.5iy95gcab.0&ts=S0483&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwiki.dspace.org%2Fconfluence%2Fdisplay%2FDSPACE%2FDSpace%2BGlobal%2BOutreach%2BCmte&id=preview>
 (http://wiki.dspace.org/confluence/display/DSPACE/DSpace+Global+Outreach+Cmte)  (DGOC) to address one of the 
biggest challenges within the DSpace user community; not just to identify which institutions used DSpace, but also 
cultivate a resource with some basic information about those repositories to help facilitate connections between 
users. The work started early last year and included a Community Networking 
Survey<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=i8p7uodab.0.0.5iy95gcab.0&ts=S0483&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwiki.dspace.org%2Fconfluence%2Fdisplay%2FDSPACE%2FCommunity%2BNetworking%2BSurvey%2BResults&id=preview>
 (http://wiki.dspace.org/confluence/display/DSPACE/Community+Networking+Survey+Results), which gathered data about 
repositories and seeded the information now available in the database.
Members of the DSpace community will now be able to search the database to 
discover other institutions which have similar repositories, environments or 
interests to their own. The hope of DGOC and the DuraSpace organization is that 
this listing will help foster all types of connections and collaborations in 
the future.

What is new?
The most popular page on the 
dspace.org<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=i8p7uodab.0.0.5iy95gcab.0&ts=S0483&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dspace.org%2F&id=preview>
 site for the last few years has been the "Who's Using DSpace?" page. This page was a simple list 
of DSpace repositories with only the institution name, country and URL link listed. The list was not easily 
searchable or sortable.
The new DSpace repositories database provides much more information and 
functionality. And there are now over 800 known repositories included in the 
database, representing over 80 countries.
Main Table View
The main database view provides you with a sortable table of all known DSpace 
instances. It includes the institution name, country, type of institution 
(academic, museum, government, etc), DSpace version/user interface and the URL 
link. This list can be re-ordered by any of the fields listed -- so if you want 
to get a quick view of who is using 1.6 XML/Manakin it can be done in an 
instant by clicking on the column header.
Detailed Repository View
To view all the available information about a specific repository (use case, 
file types stored, type of content stored, addons/extensions, database, 
operating system, etc), you simply click on the institution name. You will then 
view all the information available in the database about that particular 
repository.
Search/Filters
On the left hand side there is a number of search filters, including an open 
text search which you can use to perform a single or multi-faceted search and 
will produce a listing of those institutions which meet your selected criteria.

How can you add or update your institution's information?
The information available in the repositories database is limited to what has been provided by the institution either by registering previously on 
dspace.org<http://dspace.org>, the 
ROAR<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=i8p7uodab.0.0.5iy95gcab.0&ts=S0483&p=http%3A%2F%2Froar.eprints.org%2F&id=preview> listing 
(http://roar.eprints.org/) or by responding to the April 2009 Community Networking 
Survey<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=i8p7uodab.0.0.5iy95gcab.0&ts=S0483&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwiki.dspace.org%2Fconfluence%2Fdisplay%2FDSPACE%2FCommunity%2BNetworking%2BSurvey%2BResults&id=preview>.
 We would love to help foster more connections. Please take the time to register or to update your repository's information by making use of the  
registration 
form<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=i8p7uodab.0.0.5iy95gcab.0&ts=S0483&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dspace.org%2Fcomponent%2Foption%2Ccom_facileforms%2FItemid%2C151%2Fff_name%2Cdspaceinstance%2Flang%2Cen%2F&id=preview>
 (http://www.dspace.org/component/option,com_facileforms/Itemid,151/ff_name,dspaceinstance/lang,en/) for new listings or update 
form<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=i8p7uodab.0.0.5iy95gcab.0&ts=S0483&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dspace.org%2Fcomponent%2Foption%2Ccom_facileforms%2FItemid%2C154%2F&id=preview>
 (http://www.dspace.org/component/option,com_facileforms/Itemid,154/) for existing listings. Please note that we expect updates to existing listings may take 
a few days to show up in the database and we ask for your patience.

Acknowledgments
