A researcher at our university is worried about the embargo function and
whether or not it is possible for harvesters to get hold of the files even
though they are locked away and should be safe until the embargo is lifted. Has
anybody had a problem with this, ie harvesters harvesting embargoed bitstreams,
is it possible at all? And if it is, is there some way we can protect our
files, some settings maybe?
I have read the conversation in the archive regarding hiding metadata as well
as bitstreams, but in this case it is only the bitstream we want to hide. I
read that "the embargo system is designed to protect bitstreams", so can I
reassure my researcher that his file is well-protected?
Thanks!
Kind regards,
Caroline Karregård
