Claudia,

Thanks for the answer, this looks very promising.
I found the documentation useful, but did not cover all my questions. I googled 
and found this:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Authority+Control+of+Metadata+Values

This is a more extensive document about the subject. I think it will solve our 
problem, but have to learn how to implement it properly. Maybe even make a 
custom ChoiceAuthority plugin.

If I have questions regarding this subject, are you the person to ask them to? 
Or better on the dev-lists?

regards
Lucas

Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] Using Author Identifiers in DSpace

Hi Lukas,

take a look at the Authority Control feature which has bee introduced with 
1.6.0, this should meet your requirements.
For detail see 2.25. Choice Management and Authority Control
http://www.dspace.org/1_6_0Documentation/ch02.html#N105E8
of the documentation.


Hope that helps

Claudia Jürgen
